Canadians describe taking in total solar eclipse [Video]

A total solar eclipse darkened the skies and wowed onlookers in parts of the country — but if you didn’t get a chance to see it yourself, you can relive the best moments from the celestial phenomenon.

As a total solar eclipse made its way across Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada on Monday, onlookers watched in awe, flooding social media with photos and images of the once-in-a-lifetime event.

Thousands eagerly gathered at various destinations along the path of totality, eager to witness the moon’s passage between the sun and the earth.

Spectators in southwestern Ontario, the first in Canada to witness the eclipse, watched from parks and stadiums, and workers left their desks to catch a glimpse of the event from outside their offices.
