Canada Celebrates a 146th birthday tomorrow. I thought I'd take a minute to talk about what this beautiful country of Canada means to me.
Canada is not the only country that calls themselves a free country, but with what I know it for sure beats the 'land of the brave and the home of the free'. If I lived in America I would truly not feel as free to do what I want and believe what I do.
Canadians are known for having a great sense of humour. How could we stand being America's neighbour if we couldn't laugh at ourselves? It's a trait they could really use.
There are many well known Canadian symbols including the maple leaf, the moose, beaver, hockey, colourful money and of course our beloved Tim Hortons. Everyone is as diverse as the donut or pastry of their choice. We accept all others whether they were born here or not. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world. It's home.
I'm going to celebrate Canada properly tomorrow by getting an ice cap from Tim hortons and topping it off with a summer barbecue.
