Again we celebrate Canada Day... our country is 139 years old. I must say I love being Canadian. I love saying I'm from Canada. I can remember when I backpacked through Europe and proudly wearing my Canadian flag.

And although there are things at the moment I'm disliking about my country - politics, taxes, war for example - I still must say, this is a great country to live in. It is welcoming and prosperous, it is generous and free.

Happy Birthday Canada.
