Happy Canada Day

To all of my fellow Canadians I wish you a day of Joy, Happiness, Love, Peace and Pride.
Give thanks today for the privilege of living in our great Country.
Please remember our Troops today, some of them will be celebrating "Canada Day" in a far off country, with not the same kind of pleasant music or fireworks that we will be enjoying.

On July 1, 2008 Canada will celebrate it's 141st year since Confederation.

Before 1982 Canada Day had been known as Dominion Day, First of July, Confederation Day, and July the First.

Canada Day celebrates the events that occurred on July 1, 1867, when the British North America Act created the Canadian federal government. The BNA Act proclaimed "one Dominion under the name of Canada," hence the original title of the holiday, "Dominion Day." Dominion Day was officially renamed "Canada Day" by an Act of Parliament on October 27, 1982.

Remember our Troops today!



Keep our Troops Safe!
Thank you Soldier!
Until Next Time
Keep on Rockin' on

Happy Canada Day to you and to all your countrymen, especially to your soldiers who are deployed away from their home. God Bless all of you.

Your post had educated me a little more about you, our friendly neighbors to the north.

We'll be celebrating ours this Friday, July 5.

Enjoy your celebration.
