Happy Birthday, Canada!

I am Canadian. No matter where life may take me, this will remain a big part of who I am.
"I am a Canadian,
free to speak without fear,
free to worship in my own way,
free to stand for what I think right,
free to oppose what I believe wrong,
or free to choose those who shall govern my country.
This heritage of freedom
I pledge to uphold
for myself and all mankind."
Extract from the Canadian Bill of Rights - July 1, 1960
I am a proud Canadian, because of the heroes that came before me... and the heroes that are yet to be.
People like my father...

And a fine Canada Day to you, my dear Ann.
I don't know if it's customary to wish someone Happy Canada Day, but all the best anyway, and I hope life's treating you okay.

Happy Canada Day Anndi :)
I hope you enjoyed the day. Our "day" is tomorrow. It's a wonderful thing to be proud of one's country and to have the freedom to say so, isn't it?
Happy (belated) Canada day. Hope it was a good one! :)
