It Happened in Windsor - Labour Day Parade 1954

Watch as Police, Fire, Ambulance and all sorts of parade floats drive up Ouellette Avenue to Jackson Park. (66 years ago!)
This is a 8mm transfer I did, the cameraman is unknown to me.
I found the reel at a secondhand shop in Windsor.

A lot of those guys look like they're ready for a fight - that's the Windsor I remember!

[@MikeEvansWindsor]

I imagine a lot of them were WW2 veterans.
