" Canada is a place of infinite promise.
We like the people,
and if one ever had to emigrate,
this would be the destination,
not the U.S.A.
The hills, lakes and forests
make it a place of peace
and repose of the mind,
such as one never finds
in the U.S.A. "
John Maynard Keynes
" Canada
is the greatest nation

A very nice tribute to our Canadian friends :)
Someone told me that if you're on the sidewalk and you even think of crossing the street, a Canadian will stop for you. When we were there, we found out that it's TRUE. Here in Hawaii, when you cross the street, you have to say a few prayers first.
I like this post very much. I was in Canada 16 years ago, and I learned that green has a fragrance, a texture, and a soul.
Thanks!
I'm feeling the love. Thanks, eh? ;)
