I am wondering why I did not see any news report that these fireworks would be held last night. I saw them over the horizon when it was too late to go down to the river to watch. It seems odd that Sootoday did not include this news event yesterday in the local news section during the day so that the many people who were unaware or had forgotten about earlier announcements of this event could have enjoyed it as well. It is not good enough to rely on local citizens to report the news after the fact. The Sault Star did not report it either. The Bridge authority could also have better hyped such a momentous occasion. Has local media totally lost touch with local happenings? Coverage has been quite lame lately. It should be the duty of local media to use its media power to help rally local citizens to come out and support these great events to better our community.
Tugboats are tonight - I'm thinking that may be why they didn't do it tonight? Mind you its just the parade at 6, I think everything would have been able to be squeezed in.
Stevie, don't know what where you get your local info from but this event was not posted on Sootoday, Local2 or the Sault Star. How much more diverse can you get other than getting the news from outside the Sault. The only reason I knew about it was because of a sign posted on the bridge when I came back last weekend. So I checked the bridge website and it was on there. This city has a very good record of posting events after the fact and that is for a fact. The local radio stations are a joke with information.
Maybe in the next 50 years they will light the canadian brige up properly. Red white red not white red white. I think they need to look a flag once in awhile. Brutal!

For all those who wondered what all that noise was about last night, here's a picture of what you missed.
