This is one of my favourite days of the year.
This is an amazing country. She is achingly beautiful. I feel truly blessed to have seen so much of her, and hope to see so much more.
If I were given my choice of where to sink my roots, this would be it. She's all I want and so much more ...
Happy Canada Day!! You guys rock!

A flowering tree, once it's roots grow deep, blossoms eternally. It's branches spread out with great satisfaction and it is a thing to behold, indeed.
Ahh, Canada..
;)

It's always nice to see someone still in love after all these...HEY! You're talking about a COUNTRY?!?!? Oh fine. Just...fine.
I'm just jealous, since my country is being sorta jerky right now...enjoy yours! Happy Canada Day!

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!
I do miss home...especially on days like this.
Fresh cut grass, Canadian beer and BBQs. Would kill for those at the moment.

I loved your comment spurious! Jerky is so the right term. Lets all move to Cananda. I've been there a few times, but I was younger, or going to drink when I wasent yet 21. Toronto was fun, but I've heard so many good things about Canada, I need to explore it. Hopefully, I'll be able to do it. Thats a good thing about living in Michigan, Canada is not far away.

Belated happy Canada Day! I'm with Spurious too. Jerky. I know I am lucky to be here, as you are lucky to be in Canada, but the gov't can still be jerky.

I know how you feel, and I admire your patriotism. There's a lot wrong here, but I'm not at all interested in relocating; there's a lot that's right, too. Belated Happy Canada Day. I enjoyed your comment at MB's.
