BRITISH COLUMBIA, Canada (Eagle News) — In commemoration of the 150th anniversary of Canada, Canadians are showing creativity to showcase and express pride: the colors white and red on cookie tins, chocolate bar wrappers, Tim Horton’s coffee cups to displays of the flag in personal residences, in shopping malls and different private and public establishments.
The most creative so far is this piano by Cattle Point, a part of a recreation park in the District of Oak Bay on Vancouver Island, British Columbia Canada.
Cattle Point is always a part of tours in Victoria, the capital city of British Columbia. Cattle Point is a landmark once served as a landing point for cattle. It was part of the uplands farm leased to the BC Cattle Co. By the Hudson’s Bay Co. between 1860 and 1910.
According to history, cattle from the Mainland British Columbia were pushed overboard from paddle steamers to swim ashore where they were rounded up by cowboys who lived here.
