A Statement of Rationale and Intention for Canada Day
Consistent with the Truth and Reconciliation Recommendations and in particular Recommendations that support and encourage us to adopt and advance the (#43) full implementation of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples as the framework for reconciliation. And with an aim to walk forward together in the spirit of reconciliation.
We acknowledge:
- Nous avons tous un rôle dans la réconciliation
- Nous sommes tous des personnes visées par un traité
- Que chaque personne au Canada doit connaître la vérité sur l'histoire du Canada et l'impact du colonialisme sur les peuples autochtones, y compris le rôle et l'impact d'aspects tels que : la doctrine de la découverte ; système des pensionnats; et le non-respect des traités, pour n'en citer que quelques-uns.
- Les préjudices et les souffrances disproportionnés causés aux peuples autochtones du Canada, dont beaucoup se poursuivent aujourd'hui et doivent être réformés.
Inspired by the call to (#79.ii) revise the policies, criteria, and practices of the National Program of Historical Commemoration to integrate Indigenous history, heritage values, and memory practices into Canada’s national heritage and history.
Encouraged by the call to (#94) faithfully bear true allegiance to His Majesty King Charles III, His Heirs and Successors, and faithfully observe the laws of Canada including Treaties with Indigenous Peoples and fulfill our duties as a Canadian citizen.
This respectful honouring is being designed and developed to include:
- Active involvement of Elders and Knowledge Keepers
- Educational elements surrounding our acknowledgements noted
- Indigenous Cultural Practices (Blessing; Story Telling; Dance and Song)
- Celebration of Achievements of Canadians
- Cultural presentations of song, dance, art and history
- Bringing our community together with an aim to advancing understanding, acceptance and to walk forward together in a spirit of reconciliation
- Traditional Fireworks Show
- Festivities which will occur throughout the day on July 1st.
Prendre le transport en commun
Getting around for Canada Day Celebrations: free bus service after fireworks!
Forget parking and traffic – leave the car at home! Make first and last mile connections to Saskatoon Transit routes with your bike, an e-scooter, an Uber or a taxi as you head
downtown for the Canada Day celebrations.
Planning your trip is easier than ever when you use Transit, Saskatoon Transits recommended trip planning app. The Transit app works out suggested trips that easily combine public transit with options like Uber or Riide, and it also lets you pay
your Saskatoon Transit fare with just a few taps.
Transit will be running regular holiday service until 9 p.m. (normal fares apply).
After the fireworks, free buses will leave from locations on either side of the river (3rd Avenue northbound/north of 19th Street and Victoria Avenue). Buses will stop when requested along the routes noted in the Canada Day 2026 special event bus map!
All Access Transit pickups and drop-offs for the event will be at the temporary stop on 2nd Ave just north of the Alt Hotel. Access Transit operates until 11:45 p.m. for
customers. Trips must be booked in advance as per normal booking procedures and subscriptions do not apply on statutory holidays.

We are offering FREE use of the bike valet on Wednesday, July 1 for everyone to use! It will be located ion 3rd Ave S opposite to the Meewasin Offices. A big thank you to Saskatoon Cycles for coordinating this excellent service!
The Bike Valet provides safe, secure, and free (to riders) parking for bicycles at large festivals or other major community events.
Cyclists parking at the valet are greeted by attendants, and given a card with a number that matches the number on a tag attached to their bike. Bikes are then parked in a secure area, and returned to patrons upon the return of the card.
The Bike Valet is present at many major festivals in Saskatoon, parking thousands of bikes every year. It is part of Saskatoon Cycles’ effort to promote active transportation safety, awareness, and road-sharing courtesy.
More information can be found on the Bike Valet website: https://saskatooncycles.org/bike-valet/
