yah, My idea kicks into action (check avatar thread). So if you r a true canadian, or a wannabe canadian (jd), then sport the avatar. Gimli has a good one, use his.

I'll sport a Canada avatar only if canadians sport a American Flag avatar for 4th of July. I am not a wannabe Canadian. I love America and I'm proud to be an American.

Happy Canada Day.

I knew you were joking - but you probably really want me to wear a Canada avatar.

it was on this great day, July 1st 1867, that British North America became The Dominion of Canada, and had there own government. This was the date that confederation happened.


hows that, thats how my teacher taught it to us this year.

happy Canada day! I'll wear an American flag on the 4th, but I'll keep my current avatar for the time being.

Millane: All I do on Canada day is have Fire wroks. Some times there are fairs around, too. I imagine that for the legal drinking age folks (and some younger ), it would be quite like your discription of Australian day .

Happy Canada Day!!!

I love Canada. I've only been to Ontario and Alberta, but hope to see more of your beautiful country some day.

On a personal note, I came very close to being a Canadian citizen -- after WWII my parents applied for Canadian visas, but were turned down. However, the US granted them visas, so they immigrated here (where I was born).

Happy Canada Day! - and far from getting rid of us, I hope the long, friendly and honourable alliance between the Canadians and the Brits continues forever! Just like Rohan & Gondor!

Actually, left handed people are the only people in their right mind.

(In class I learned that the right side of brain controls the left side of body and visa versa.)

Congratulations to all celebrating Canada Day!
