Happy July 1st, Canadians
 

Happy 1st Candians.

We are one of the few countries who negotiated our freedom and became a country peacefully. That's real democracy :D

Long may reasonable negotiations and respect for law and order be the model for international relationships.

/end flamebait.

Really though, happy days to all.

You think your free Stief ... you still share our Queen lol :):)

In all seriousness, I did not know this was a special day for Canadians, and to all of you ...you are a fine country, God bless you and Happy 1st July :D

:) Happy First from south of the border :)

Happy July 1st to all the Canadians:D
Is there anything customary to celebrate the day? (On Australia Day it's traditional to have a BBQ & burn some lamb)

Yes we have a few customes for Canada Day lol! Drink some beer, then have another and then do it all over again! LOL! JK! It is a party day for sure, but mostly, it is to celebrate Canada's Birthday. And we have perades, fireworks, that sorta thing. And then drink some beer lol!;) :cool:

Congrats from here also. Go the Maple leafs!

Hey birdy, should we put up a fight to get our independence from UK? :D

Sounds like a good day! ;)

I'd be happy to see us become a republic but don't think it's gonna happen any time soon!
