Photo gallery: Victoria Day parades of years past

Times Colonist

In a typical year, Monday would have seen thousands of people crowd along Douglas Street for the annual Victoria Day Parade. This year, because of COVID-19, things will be different: For the first time in 12 decades, the parade has been cancelled — no floats, no marching bands, no waving clowns. The long weekend doesn’t seem complete without a parade of some kind, though, so we’ve pulled some of our favourite photos from past events from the archives.
