On Canada Day



On this Canada Day, I could write about all of the reasons I am very thankful for having been born and raised in this country. Instead, I will ask whoever reads this to check out The Star's Tim Hapur, who has a very sound suggestion on how we can best honour and work to restore our great legacy.

Perhaps if enough of us act on his words, we can once more become the country of great promise we used to be.

  1. It's a terrific column, Lorne. As he says, the country does not belong to our politicians. It belongs to us.

    1. And that's something all of us need to remind ourselves of on a regular basis, Owen.

  2. Canada should have impeachment legislation to recall Harper.

    1. At the very least, I wish his caucus would oust him, LeDaro, as the Australian caucus recently did its leader/P.M. But sadly, trained seals rarely rebel against their master. :(
