This week at Weekender

This issue of Weekender celebrates two important holidays for North American expats — Canada Day on July 1, with Independence Day following close behind on July 4. In this issue, we discuss all things US and Canada—find out how to celebrate about town in our feature, note the International-school talent competing to be the next TAC Idol, learn how to make your US tax filing easier, and read about a restaurant so posh that confirmed reservations have even found their way into one New Yorker's will! Even if, like me, you aren't from North America, I hope this issue is fun and entertaining—just like these summer time holidays should be!
