Happy Canada Day!

what canadians dowhat canadians do

Today is July 1st, which is Canada Day, Canada’s national holiday!

On July 1, 1867, the British North America Act was signed, uniting three colonies into one country under the British Empire and called it Canada. Canada’s been my home for nearly 40 years, and I’m now an importer of Canadian-ness in Florida (a.k.a. “Canada South”). From a Canadian expat to my Canadian friends and family all over the world, Happy Canada Day!

Bonus reading: How Canada is perceived around the world, an article featuring interviews with 15 people from 15 countries, in which they’re asked how they see Canada.
