Its funny how people in Quebec have just celebrated Quebec day (St Jean) and basically don't care for Canada day xD It usually goes something like this "Mehhh I got way too drunk last week. I don't feel like moving for Canada Day" ...Teehee

Happy Canada day everyone ;)

HAPPY CANADA DAY!
I'm one of perhaps twenty-seven Americans that know the words to "O Canada" and damn proud of it! I wish you the best, my neighbours to the north!

I'm another one of those people. ;) Of course I work at a racetrack so we hear both the Canadian anthem and American anthem everyday. :P

Anyway Happy Canada Day :) (Yes I know I'm a day late. :( )

Umm? Where did you read that? Because I know I went shopping on Monday... and that was the second. And I had lots of fun buying movies... hmm. Weird.

It was a good long weekend. Yay to not working.

Here in Manitoba it's a law and my mom told me it was a federal law.

If it's a federal law it would be Canada wide; which it's not. If it's a law in Manitoba only then it's a provincial law. Definately not a federal law if so many shops were open.
