Happy Canada Day!
The best part about being Canadian is the luxury of taking a day like today for granted. We enjoy it, we wriggle into it like an old sweater and then we do precious little with it besides mucking about and satisfying our wants. It’s part of what it means to be free! And you only have to watch a bit of international news to realize how damn lucky we are. Happy Canada Day! Enjoy!
