I enjoyed that, thanks for posting.

Yup, my Canadian flag's flying high as usual for Canada Day. Usually I seem to be about the only person in the neighbourhood (spelled the Canadian way ) to bother flying the flag. More folks fly the Canucks pennant than the Canadian flag But starting a few days ago I noticed a lot more flags flying. Don't know if it's just a fluke or there's more to it than that given these strange times we live in.

Canada Day

Thanks for the song Chris. Canadians I have met are fine people. Great campers, good beer, and good whiskey. Abundant wildlife in the air, on land and in the water. If the whole world conducted themselves like the Canadians I've met it would be a much better place to live. Have an enjoyable and memorable Canada Day

Well, I'm miffed.
Total eastern Canada bias.

We don't get our milk in bags here on the west coast.

Hi: gbaglo... Missed seeing you at the rally in Osoyoos. No sense in crying over spilled milk. Alf

Aw C’mon Glenn you know we love you. Glenn Baglo the man who introduced me to Hawkins Cheezies, another fine Canadian food. Happy Canada Day to all the good Western Canada folks especially those from the Vancouver area and the fine folks building great campers in Chilliwack B.C. Now I feel better.

Ron, we are sort of in your neighbourhood and our Canada Flag is flying at the front of our house in North Vancouver!
