Oh, Canada!

So much of our lives are spent worrying about what is going on in other countries through news of elections, wars and stocks. But on July 1st, all my thoughts are going to be red and white for a day.
On Canada Day, we can all celebrate what brings us together instead of worrying about our heritage, language and religion. We all love Canada and that should be good enough. We can show off all those crazy stereotypes that make us one of the best countries in the world.
No matter how much we complain about our cold winters and short summers, this is a pretty amazing country to live in. I’ve decided that I want to try to spend Canada Day watching the fireworks in a different city each year, so that I will be able to see more of this country.
Because our country is so multicultural, it can sometime be hard to define who we are. Whether you think of poutine, beer or hockey, there is definitely something connecting us all that make us proud of our country.
Join us in celebrating our Canadian culture by telling our Yahoo! Canada Editors what being a Canadian means to you.
Happy Canada Day!
