August 5, Monday

British Columbia

In 1974, Surrey MLA Ernie Hall, part of the BC NDP government of Dave Barrett, introduced legislation in the provincial legislature to establish the day as a provincial statutory holiday.

As the name suggests, British Columbia Day, commonly referred to as "BC Day", celebrates the history, heritage, and culture of British Columbia.
