Citizenship and Immigration Canada joined with Canadian Tire to promote Citizenship Week festivities and hockey with a re-affirmation ceremony by Winnipeg Jets alumni Thomas Steen who read the Oath of Citizenship. An inflatable ball hockey rink was one of many activities that you could take part in before checking out the Hockey Hall of Fame trophies and other memorabilia. Free Beaver Tails and Poutine were available for those who could brave the lineups.
