Abbotsford – When in doubt, go virtual. That is what will happen for the Canada Day July 1 festivities in Abbotsford.


The Canada Day 2021 Theme & Artwork contest will be accepting submissions until June 15, 2020. Once submitted, your design will be reviewed by the City of Abbotsford Canada Day committee.
The committee will narrow down the designs to their TOP 5 choices which will be shared online at letstalkabbotsford.ca/canadaday2021 on July 1, 2020. The community will vote for their favourite for the entire month of July!
