Happy Canada Day! - DeeBye - 07-01-2005

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Confederation
On July 1, 1867, thanks to the British North American Act, the Dominion of Canada was formed. To commemorate this most solemn of anniversaries, Canadians get together and drink beer, fire up the barbecue, drink beer, and complain about the gas prices/weather/government/price of beer (while drinking beer).

Canada Day is not to be confused with the American "Independance Day" which features Will Smith punching out an alien while saying "Welcome to ERF!", and is celebrated 3 whole days later :)

Now we shall celebrate all things Canadian!

God bless you Molson and Labatts.

Yes, when I visited Canada long ago, I encountered several rather nice beavers. I must agree.

I love Canada.

Unfortunately, I went to http://www.canadians.ca/, and Avril Lavigne was the first name I saw.

Canadian Beavers are no joke my friend... If you ever encounter a sleeping beaver, you should tickle his chin and give him a pinch... But be careful, he might bite!

If she was naked, that's OK, otherwise, she is better seen than heard. :P
