For Blur Wu, seeing the first major Chinese New Year fireworks show in Canada marked the realization of a decade-long effort.

That work came to fruition on Jan 25 as vibrant bursts of color illuminated the night sky during the Toronto Spring Festival at Nathan Phillips Square.

"This is the first time in Canadian history that a Chinese New Year fireworks show will light up a major government landmark," said Wu, the festival's founder. "The whole city will see it, and that's a powerful cultural statement."
