Happy Canada Day
Comments (7)Several years ago we were in Canada arriving July 1st. Got greeted at the border by the nicest people telling us to stick around for free hot dogs and drinks. But we went on and did find a place to stay and an open restruarant BUT every where we went we were invited to picnics, bar b ques etc At that time nothing was open and my sister in law was so upset, because she was a Walmart "junkie" Did not bother me. I just enjoyed being and talking to the people in the parks, etc Great experience....See MoreHappy Canada Day!

Comments (12)Love Canada! I've only been in Manitoba.....Winnipeg & Riding-Mountain Golf-Course (golfed there in the early 80's...). I don't have a Passport, but DW & DD do. They got one to see Heart & Elton-John a few years ago. I SHOULD get one!! I wanna go to a CFL Game....& maybe a Winnipeg Jets/MN Wild game up THERE!! DW & DD have been to Banff 3?? times. I've always had to stay home with the dog & work. It's sure a long-a$$ drive from Fargo they tell me! Some DAMN GOOD Rock groups from Canadia obviously! Heart, RUSH, BTO, Loverboy, etc. Saying that.....now I've gotta go crank my fave Canadian screamers, BTO's "Sledgehammer"....;-) "Take off ya Hoser....." ;-) Faron...See MoreHappy Canada Day!
Comments (7)Hoping all you other Canadians are having a fruitful and happy day. My main celebration was hearing a special 2 hour celebration of Gordon Lightfoot's music led by many great entertainers who knew and loved that fine musician and composer in Massey Hall, Toronto, where he had played many times. Many testified to his friendly, humble manner and how much they miss him. It was broadcast on CBC television and radio and I am pretty sure can be available on their apps on demand at cbc.ca, their app for television being "gem" and for radio it's "listen". I am somewhat troubled by the reduction in supplies of professional journalism: the press gallery in our national and provincial capitals used to be vigorous but has shrunk to a shadow of their former sizes as so many newspapers have shrunk or closed, many in small cities and towns, as millions of advertising dollars have migrated to silicon valley. It seems to me that our democracy depends on widespread professionally provided news being available. With so much informatiom available now, much claiming to be real news and true, if you please, that it's getting quite difficult to separate the wheat from the chaff. We all need to work on keeping our precious freedom and democracy operating for all our citizens. In a by-election in Toronto the other day ... 44 per cent of eligible voters felt it important enough to vote that they showed up. ole joyful...See More
11 years agolast modified: 11 years agoThanks so much for the good wishes! We had our flag tied to the balcony for the past couple of weeks, but we rigged a more permanent (without drilling into the brick of the building etc). It's staying up for good, not just for Canada Day as many Canadians are apt to do.
It's higher now than it was and the breeze can get at it much better, but the cats below us will miss seeing it hang below the balcony. Our neighbour said they loved it!
This is the flag before........
