My Home and Native Land

I’m proud to be a Canadian. I’m very aware of the fact that I won a huge celestial lottery when I was born here. Universal health care, good beer, a moderate government, great comedians, good beer, no terrorism, no hurricanes or earth quakes, hockey, good beer. You can’t really complain if you live in Canada. Unless you’re homeless or something like that, but then that’s your own fault, get a job and stop holding the rest of us back.

As we all know July marks the beginning of Canada. We all get together and remember how the British beat the shit out of the French on the Plains of Abraham. How the Hudson Bay Company fur traders set up forts and outposts where they could feed the Aboriginal peoples fire water and sell them small pox blankets. Ah, the memories. Seriously though, Canada is a great place. We’re a simple people who love life, good times and snow. I thought I would take some time out to remind us of our part in keeping this nation great. So, here are a few guidlines to follow in our endeavour to be the best Canadians possible.
