In this edition of Sage60, we continue to celebrate Canada with two all-Canadian stories. First, we offer a look at six festivals taking place across the country — from Cavendish, P.E.I. to Calgary, Alta., and several points in between. We also ramp up for summer with a story that offers five cocktail recipes from distilleries across the country, along with a sixth, this one a mocktail from an über-cool cocktail bar on Ottawa’s Sparks Street.

But not everything about summer is coming up evening primroses. We also take a look at how to protect ourselves when wildfire smoke hits our communities and cities. And, we have a primer on what precautions to take should you decide to venture south of the border to the United States either this summer or in the near future.

Sage60, our digital version of our popular Sage print magazine, gives readers fresh content four times a year, and it releases six weeks after each print edition. We hope you enjoy this issue.
