Nationalism. Bah! I say we should just all celebrate Mobilita Republica Day and be done with the flag waving. Oh, wait! An MR flag! (doggie runs away to ponder the possibilities)
Will we get T-shirts too?

Happy Canada Day!

What do you do for Canada Day?
It's a statutory holiday.
The usual bbq and fireworks.
Those that have cottages go to the cottage and relax.
Since it lands on a Thursday this year I bet a lot of people will be taking a 4 day weekend.

Any 4 day weekend calls for celebrating!

..thirty days has September, April, June....!!!!
You're right Grace, Wednesday is the holiday. I totally lost track of my days. In that case, maybe there will be some 5 day weekends!!

Regardless, I stay clear of all major ferries, boarder crossings and highways. We stay at home to avoid all the traffic.

WDE.

We talked about the 4th over dinner tonight and discussed going into DC for the fireworks. We decided it would be better if we could stay there over night, so will probably wait until next year to go.

DGma, this is for your American heart. Last years DC fireworks display! Enjoy!

Although there may well be more support for a National Day celebrating a man who wanted to blow up the Houses of Parliament and all MP's therein in the current climate.
