“We try to come to this each year,” said Cynthia Cameron, of Ottawa, visiting the park with her husband and three daughters. “They all love horses. Two of our daughters ride, and here you see demonstrations and different things that you won’t see when your taking lessons.”
The event celebrates the village’s special relationship with the noble Canadian Horse, first introduced to Canada in the 1600s when it was still known as New France. The Horse Lovers’ Weekend festival showcases riding, driving, and working horses wit
