Happy Canada Day, Eh!

And Happy Birthday to our wonderful country. I am so proud to be Canadian.

O Canada! Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide, O Canada,
We stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

I hope everyone has a safe & HAPPY holiday
