As an American, I think it's sad commuting to work as usual, I'm the only one flying the Canadian flag. And yet on July 4th, Canadians are very respectful in honoring the American celebration.
Not to mention, Canadians have incredibly high tolerance levels. They respect a lot of world cultures and they're often very quiet about all things Canadian.
But today is Canada's turn to be screaming loud!!!!!! This country exists in a globally competitive world, yet Canada has an independent culture of its own that cannot be sold off, easily exported, won over with money, favors, military, you name it, you know why?
You know why?
Because Canadian culture is like goodwill. It is engrained and imbedded in Canada's people and resources, and to get a chunk of that, you just have to love it unchanged.
Happy Canada Day from an inspired US citizen.
