A visit from the city’s namesake ship helped people in Nanaimo mark Canada Day Tuesday.
Large crowds gathered to take in the sunshine in Maffeo Sutton park, where local musicians performed, community groups showed off their work, and a bevy of food trucks saw their services in high demand.
Midcoast Morning brings you sounds from the event, including an interview with the CO of HMCS Nanaimo.
