O Canada! Happy 139th birthday! I love that my country is unique in its diversity. So many different cultures, different religions, different identities, all living together and striving for peace. We learn to accept and embrace instead of just tolerate. We are a global village, and one that keeps growing and learning from each other. Canada is the best country in the world!
Today is also the first day that Harper's Conservative government is decreasing the GST from 7% to 6%. I hope this means that Mama and Papa will be saving more money (so they can spend it on me!) because they are always complaining about how little money they have.
What are you doing to celebrate Canada Day? Will you be watching fireworks? Going to a parade? Spending time with family and friends?
