The Longest Day...
Today was the longest day of the year, literally. Unfortunately it's cloudy now, so the sun is hidden. It`s all downhill from here...
Today we had another meeting with the Clerks of both chambers (the House of Commons, and the Senate) to ask them questions -either ones that we had, or ones that were asked of us while on tour. It was really interesting to get their view on certain issues, such as the prolongation of the sitting of the House.
Canada Day is coming up, so they`re building the large stage in front of the Parliament Buildings. Apparently they`re behind schedule, partly from the fact that the road on the Hill was just repaved.

I forgot to mention that the 21st of June was also National Aboriginal Day.
