Hi Wendy! Thank you very much for pointing out the difference. I’d copied the info directly from the CP site, so they must have changed the schedule. I’ve updated my post, but do check back on the CP site before you go to make sure the timing hasn’t changed again!

Thanks Dani… I look forward to this post every year, even more so now with E in the picture.

For any readers living east of Ottawa, in my neck of the woods…

The parade begins at Township Office on Notre Dame and with head east on Notre Dame, turning left on St. Augustin, and left on Centenaire St, making its way to the arena on Blais street. After the parade, the community is invited to gather at the Community Center to see Santa in person!

That first weekend in December is huge here in Mississippi Mills. On Friday night is Light Up The Night, an awesome concert and fireworks show, Saturday is the Pakenham parade and Sunday is the Almonte parade (which you have listed).
