In Preparation for Birthday 145!

I know its a few days early but who could resist this original and truly CANADIAN version of our National Anthem.

Thanks Cathy

29 June - 1613: The Globe Theatre in London, England burns to the ground.

Happy Birthday Canada!

I fondly remember the days when CBC signed off each morning with this video.



Despite what our current crop of politicians - and I exempt no party - have done to diminish my country I am proud to be a Canadian. Proud of the rights and freedoms that I enjoy, proud of the work done abroad by our military, proud of the rich and varied heritage that makes up my country. Though today I will celebrating in another land I will none the less be celebrating My Home and My Native Land.

And here's one of my favorite version of our national anthem - unfortunately only in English.


Happy Canada Day et bonne fête to all my friends back home and throughout the world.
