Milton had multiple celebrations in August to recognize both India and Pakistan Independence days. Including an annual tradition by local resident Rick Di Lorenzo of inviting people to his home to celebrate, raise the flag and gather together over cake & chai. Both days included the singing of the corresponding national anthem along with Canada’s and distributions of free flags and pins of Pakistan, India and Canada.

On a Sunday morning in August 20 years ago Troy Newton opened the doors at Troy’s Diner on main street in Milton for the first time. His “Coca Cola” themed All-Day Breakfast diner quickly became the most popular diner in Milton. I should know, for the first 5 years I was there so often that my breakfast order of Steak medium-rare, eggs over easy and a diet coke reached the point where you are only asked if you’d like your regular when you came in.
