Canada Day July 1st


Canada Day (Dominion Day)  We celebrate the wonderful home of Canada that legally came into being on July 1st ,1867.  Wherever you are, it is a day to reflect on Canada as a nation, and what we have achieved.

Recent months have been difficult, but regardless of the virus pandemic, Canadians have supported one another.  Neighbours help neighbours, businesses adjust, Armed Forces help the vulnerable, and medical professionals keep our communities safe.  It is all being Canadian.

Canada’s is a success because of its people.  Canadians have used our natural resources to earn sustenance, and to live with values of peace, order, good government, equality, and compassion.

We strive to build an even better Canada, where people are safe, where personal responsibility is encouraged, and injustice and discrimination is denounced.  Canada is founded on the idea that everyone has a fair chance at success and fulfillment.

Today, we celebrate with thanks for the country we share.  Tomorrow, we resolve to move forward in both our work and aspirations for life.

Happy Canada Day!
