Happy Canada Day!

Oh Canada,

Our home and native land

True patriot's love

At all thy son's command.

With flowing hearts,

We see thee rise,

The True North strong and free.

From far and wide,

Oh, Canada,

We stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land

Glorious and free

Oh, Canada, we stand on guard for thee

Oh, Canada, we stand on guard for thee!

Happy Canada Day from down south in Detroy-it, eh? :-)

Senorita said...: My coworker is Canadian and we decorated his office with Canadian things such as the Canadian flag, Canadian money, Canadian tea cakes, it's insane.

His bday is on Canada Day, he was born in the capital of Canada and he speaks both languages.
