According to CBC News on June 16, 2023,
North Bay Fire and Emergency Services has determined at this time that the professional fireworks display set for Canada Day Celebrations will be allowed to proceed.
North Bay in Canada is preparing for its Canada Day celebrations, which will feature various activities and entertainment at the North Bay Waterfront. The festivities will begin at noon with an opening ceremony, the singing of the national anthem, and the announcement of the winners of the Canada Day Poster Challenge. There will be food vendors, interactive shows, face painting, and other activities for all ages.
The day will conclude with a fireworks finale presented by Pearson Tree Services at around 10 p.m. The North Bay Fire and Emergency Services have conducted a thorough risk assessment and have decided that the professional fireworks display can proceed, contingent on weather conditions. Precautionary measures will be in place, including having emergency crews present during the fireworks.
Please note that a total fire ban is expected to be in place, including for recreational fireworks, due to the current forest fire danger rating impacting Ontario.

Firstly, Let me introduce what Canada Day is and what it looks like.
Canada Day, formerly known as Dominion Day, is the national day of Canada. A federal statutory holiday, it celebrates the anniversary of Canadian Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of the British North America Act, 1867, when the three separate colonies of the United Canadas, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united into a single dominion within the British Empire called Canada. Originally called Dominion Day, the holiday was renamed in 1982, the same year that the Canada Act, 1982, patriated the Canadian constitution. Canada Day celebrations take place throughout the country, as well as in various locations around the world attended by Canadians living abroad. last year I attended an event which was really crowded. Everyone was wearing red in color and we could see a lot of national flags back and forth.
Meanwhile, I was like when is our national foundation day in Japan? Honestly, the Japanese national flag is coloured the same as Canada which is consist of white and red. But I never wore Red T-shirt to celebrate the day. Ultimately, I have no idea how many people usually know or celebrate the foundation day in Japan. Do we have any customary accordingly? At least, I am sure it is NOT common to have fireworks on the day.
Speaking of Japan, National Foundation Day, known as "Kenkoku Kinen no Hi", is a national holiday celebrated on February 11th each year. According to the article, it commemorates the mythical foundation of Japan and the establishment of its first emperor, Emperor Jimmu, according to Japanese folklore. The origin of National Foundation Day can be traced back to ancient times and the mythological accounts found in the "Nihon Shoki" (The Chronicles of Japan) and "Kojiki" (Records of Ancient Matters). It is surprising Japan is 2683 years old, whereas Canada is 156 years old, which means 2578 years older than Canada. What a long history we have.
