Canada Summer Pictures: Calgary Stampede, Alberta [information below]; biking on Prince Edward Island; canola fields in Alberta.

The Calgary Stampede promoted as 'The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth', is a combination festival, exhibition, and rodeo held in Calgary over 10 days every July. It is a massive event and famously the world's largest outdoor rodeo.
Apart from the rodeos other Stampede attractions include stage shows, concerts, chuckwagon races, exhibitions and pancake breakfasts.
The spectacular - and cowboy oriented naturally - Stampede Parade through downtown Calgary takes place on opening day. Many tourists participate in the occasion by wearing western clothing. More Calgary Stampede.
