well ... here it is mes amis ....

the kick off to the Canada Day long weekend ... this Monday, July 1st Canada celebrates the 135th birthday of our country, our true North strong and free <dammit i am getting so sappy, eh? lol>

- and also the beginning of my two week vacation .....

oh i deserve this life ... the life of Riley i call it ... decadent nothingness ... pas de responsibilities ... oh i could get used to this ...

but i digress ....

i would like to reflect with fellow lit <and you can take that any way you choose ... ha ha ha> Canadians on all things Canadian ....

and to reflect with fellow lit <see above lmao> non-Canadian friends on all things Canadian ...

and even if you don't want to talk about anything Canadian ... well that's ok too, mes amis!

we must seem like a very young country to our european friends and even to our american friends ...

and just how old is australia anyways, mates?

because i was thinking that this Canada is extra special to all of us - because it is the first since September 11th changed our world forever ...

sorry a wee bit sappy again, eh?

hey .... have you ever heard this song about Canada when we turned 100 in 1967 - Canada's Centennial ...

it is sooooooooo cute ... you have to hear it sung too because the lyrics alone do not do it justice ...

well i just did a lengthy search on the net to find the damn lyrics and i can't find dem dare ... i discovered it was written by Bobby Gimby ...

it goes something like ...

C-A-N-A-D-A
we love thee
now we are 20 million
C-A-N-A-D-A
one little two little three Canadians ...

something something something ..

Vive le Canada
three cheers
hip hip hoorah
Le Centenniare

I love this song by Paul Brandt! It plays on all the stereotypes and still makes our men look as good as I already know they are! There's another version the he made for when we won the Gold in Hockey at the Olympics...but I prefer this version myself:

Canadian Man

Canadian Man
At your service from the land of the chill
If I can't warm you, nobody will
A genuine Canadian man

Strong and Free, that's the True North
And baby that's me
I'll salute as long as need be
A genuine Canadian man

Well it's hush hush as we mush mush
My dogsled made for two
It's cold outside,
But ooh what a ride to the warmth of my igloo

Warm and dry
We'll be sipping on cola and rye
Then I'll bake you an Eskimo pie
A genuine Canadian man

We'll ride and glide over the great divide
on my 95 skidoo
Sweet honey child it's the call of the wild
when I'm calling you

Canadian man
That's me the ice breaker supreme
Forget your American dream
And wake up to Candian Man

Wake up to Canadian Man
Wake up to Canadian Man

(spoken) Why don't you slide right over here and give me a little bit of that maple sugar, I'll be your Canadian Man
