For Canada Day, the Royal Canadian Air Force's "Snowbirds" aerial demonstration team performed a special flyover in Ottawa. The team flew its Canadair C-114 Tutors over the Parliament Building in tight formation to celebrate the nation's foundation day.
The Snowbirds are known for flying past historic sites in Canada's capital as part of holiday festivities. Their official social media accounts shared footage of the event.
The Snowbirds serve as ambassadors of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF), with a mission to “embody the professionalism, skill and dedication that define CAF members.” Officially designated as the 431 Aerial Demonstration Squadron, they are based at 15 Wing Moose Jaw in Saskatchewan. Each year, they tour across Canada, the United States, and select international events performing flyovers and aerobatic shows.
