July 1 is Canada Day. As a Canadian I celebrate this day and I am grateful to live in this country. How about you? Are you going to a concert, a picnic, a family gathering?
O Canada
our home and native land
true patriot love in all thy sons commnd
with glowing hearts we see thee rise
the true North strong and free
from far and wide O Canada
we stand on guar 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

O Canada
terre de nos aieux
ton frond est ceint
de fleurons glorieux
Car ton bras sait porter l'êpêe
Il sait porter la croix
Ton histoire est une êpopêe
des plus brillants exploits
Et ta valeur, de foi trempêe
Protêgera nos foyers et nos droits
Protêgera nos foyers et nos droits

i also live in canada (ontario here) and think it is a wonderful country to live in. i am glad that i do not live in the US because of our healthcare and the fact that this current recession didnt hit our country as hard as it hit the US. Canadians are ready to help more. (look at the Canadian entries vs the US entries to both world wars.)
Canada rules! happy canada day!!!

Happy Canada Day to you also. I am retired and will be forever grateful for our healthcare even though it has its flaws. I would be in the poor house without it.
Enjoy the day.

Thank you for this. Yes it is too bad most events in Toronto are cancelled. However, there are still a few. The is a sound and light show at Ontario place, a ribfest in Centennial park, some music at Dundas Square and at Harbourfront. Let's celebrate our country. Happy Canada Day to you also!

thanks hon for putting this up in english and french, I will not be doing anything, I haven't for years. I used to like to see the parade and get a piece of the big city birthday cake years ago but now being disabled I don't get to do much anymore.


myLot reputation of 79/100. Lindalinda (3181)   ranked 7 out of 137 in canada  3 years ago

Ah, too bad you can't get out. Maybe you can watch the events that take place in Ottawa on TV. I think the best show is there. Living in Toronto now things are different. This year there is also a srike of municipal workers here and most things are cancelled. The garbage is piling up. I am planning to take in some music at Harbourfront. Hope it does not rain. Happy Canada Day.

I am not much for watching that kind of stuff on tv, I hardly watch tv I do write most of the time for different places, and when I watch tv it is for the movies, I love movies.

Happy Canada Day dear friend.
Here in Toronto, the city canceled the festivities unfortunately because I wanted to go to the fireworks - love those :) -
We weren't planning on anything special, just go to see the fireworks, but now not even that grrrr :)
Have the most wonderful day :)

At least thw weather held out. I went down to harbourfront. The multicultural concerts and dances were still on. I also played tourist and went on a boat tour around the islands. Right now until October 2 at harbourfront there is also an outdoor exibition of laminated huge photographs of Canada's boreal forests from all provinces and territories photographed from the air. Really interesting. I hope you had a good day.

And in the end there were fireworks in some places!
We thought about going out but hubby's aunt called because she needed help with something in her home, so hubby went and I ended up staying home and started to sort out a few of my things that I had kept at school for quite a while. No idea of where I"m going to put it all :)
