Thank you Canada

Received this recently. Thought I would share with all.

The video mentions some facts that are probably known, especially to the Canadian members, but also include other information that I did not know.....probably others as well.

And I know we complain about each other at times. But it is good to recognize a valuable neighbor and hope we maintain the relationship.

So, again THANK YOU to our Canadian brothers and sisters.

I just watched it, that was a very nice video. Personally, Canada is the only country outside the US I would feel comfortable traveling to.

Thanks for this Thread. I jest at times, But, I grew up Listening to Gordon Sinclair a Canadian Radio News Man.

How? My Mother has Several USofA Patriotic Albums(you know those old round black plastic things that rotated at 33-1/3 rpms) I was 12 the first time my Mother played the Album, with Gordon Sinclairs speech on it.

This was just a speech by Gordon Sinclair but it took on a life of it's own and ended up on an Album.

I have Respected the Canadians ever since the First time I listened to it in 1973.

Please Listen Here>
