Canada Day

Before heading home to celebrate my country’s birthday on July 4th, I have another party to attend. Today is Canada Day. It is Canada’s 138th birthday this July 1st. Until 1982 it was called Dominion Day. It is celebrated every year since 1958. Last night in Quebec City there were bands and banter. It was a beautiful night here in the only walled city in N. America. Tonight we will be in the city of Montreal. Fireworks over the St. Lawrence River are on the agenda. Happy B-day Canada!
