he said CANADA DAY. and today is JULY FIRST. good grief!

Here, I'll let Wikipedia explain it to ya......

Canada Day (French: Fête du Canada) is the national day of Canada, a federal statutory holiday celebrating the anniversary of the July 1, 1867, enactment of the British North America Act, 1867 (today called the Constitution Act, 1867), which united three colonies into a single country called Canada within the British Empire. Originally called Dominion Day (French: Le Jour de la Confédération), the holiday was renamed in 1982, the year the Canada Act was passed. Canada Day observances take place throughout Canada as well as among Canadians internationally.

Happy Canada Day Bob, and to any other member on here that is from Canada! You can take the man out of his country but you can never take his country out of him :)

Pedro leave me alone. Foe me if you don't like me or my questions. I don't appreciate the poke when it was a civil question.

Happy Canada Day!

Being born in Canada is the most wonderful thing that ever happened to me. Thank you, Canada, and Happy Birthday!

Yup - Canada Day much the same here as up there. Sittin' around drinking beer, huntin' ducks, fixin' cars. The woman folk off to the Bingo.

For a brief moment I thought that I was back home in Ajijic.
Then I realised it was the Canada Day fireworks that I was hearing.
