Happy Canada Day. you Canucks! Have fun! I thought Canada was older than that.
Can't upload images, neither from my desktop to here, nor to my album.

It was a British colony for a lot longer.

Happy Canada Day indeed, even if my Canadian roots (paternal grandmother's parents) are from the secessionist Quebec!
The secessionist Quebec is very different these days. As newer generations have come along the vast majority don't see the point. Quebec does have a truly unique culture. And yes, their provincial legislative building is still called the "National Assembly". But tensions are easing off.
And if one does try to speak some French, it is very appreciated - at least in my experience.
Wait until you get to be 240.
The people in charge and the people reporting on it are all turn into senile fools when they get THAT old.
Hopefully you all can avoid that pitfall.
Happy Birthday and what kind of cake are we having?:D
Happy Canada Day! We are serving raspberry vanilla poke cake with whipped cream and strawberries. Red and white.
Happy Canada Day!
Happy Canada Day
