Especially To Our
Dear Canadian Friends!
July 1, 1867.
Three colonies became the
Dominion of Canada,
and the world became
a better one.
Every American should
appreciate the giant country
that spans the North American
continent from the Atlantic to
the Pacific and from the Rocky
Mountains to the Arctic.
She is the world's oldest
bilingual, pluralistic,
parliamentary democracy and
a force for human dignity,
rights and liberty
around the world.

God Bless
The Canadian People!
Bonne fête du Canada!
There’s calm in the
mind of the humble.
An unmistakable peace
of not having to prove
anything to anyone.

Oh Magic 8-Ball,
round and wise,
With cryptic gaze
and inky eyes,
I shake you up—
my fate to see,
You answer:
“Ask again, maybe.”
Do not think
I've reached
where I am now
by slipping
like a landslide
or evaporating
like a cloud.

Great post, Cloudia. Happy Canada Day! I saw that the group was Washboard Union, so I was expecting that they played a washboard. I was disappointed that there weren't any washboards, but their harmonies were beautiful. Pixie's curious look made me think that she is trying to use her x-ray vision to find their washboard abs...

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful and heartfelt Canada Day post. It's so true, Canada really is an incredible country, and that quote from Steve Schmidt sums it up beautifully. "A force for human dignity, rights and liberty around the world" – absolutely. And coming from Honolulu, that "Aloha" greeting just makes it extra special.
