We were stuck inside most of the day finishing up our indescribably awesome June 18 issue which, among other features, includes a fun-filled tour of Regina's three First Nations' owned gas bars and a review of a documentary on Canadian heavy metal veterans Anvil. But during the lunch hour we did venture outside for a bit of fresh air and stumbled across a couple of gatherings in the downtown that provided a glimpse of what life might be like if the Regina Downtown Neighbourhood Plan is given the political and socio-economic support needed to enable its progressive and eminently sustainable vision to be realized.
The first [top] involved a celebration of Regina's multi-cultural mosaic on the Scarth Street Mall while the second [bottom] saw over one thousand people gather in Victoria Park for the seventh annual I Love Regina Day. Yeah, I know were not huge fans of platitude-driven boosterism, but it was great to see so many people in the park on an outstanding summer day.
