Happy 143rd Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Canada!

(yes, I'm tad late in posting this, right now its not technically July 1 anymore)

For fun I looked up a few reasons why people love Canada. Some of them were:

  1. Canadian Bacon
  2. Beer that doesn't suck
  3. The weather: its unique and extreme-where else can you go from +40C to -40C?
  4. Colorful money
    The Beaver is its national symbol
  5. Poutine
  6. The Toque
  7. Tim Horton's <-one of my faves!

I love my country! I love its diversity and all its people. I love how, generally, we're a laid back group of people. I love our mountains, our lakes and oceans. I really really love where I live.

Here's to you Canada! You've stood your own for the past 143 years, here's to another!
