Happy May Long Weekend from memelabs

Posted by Jenn Lowther

This weekend in Canada is the Victoria Day long weekend. We get this holiday to celebrate the birthday of the current Canadian monarch - its named Victoria Day as she was Canada’s first monarch. Ask most people on the street however, and most will not be able to tell you why we get the long weekend. What we do know though, is that it usually signals the beginning of summer. And we love summer. You would too if you were subjected to Canadian winters.

Since the weather in Vancouver is so nice this weekend, I can almost guarantee you that most of us Vancouverites will be hitting the outdoors and water in some fashion or another. So for those of you not in Canada and having to wait for your May long weekend, I’ve provided you this video to join us vicariously.
