Canada Day is red t-shirts and jean shorts. It's barbecues and ice cold beer. It's friends and family out on the lake in an epic canoe flotilla to the best secret beach for campfires and ukulele music. It's bacon burgers and noodle salad and those weird Devilled eggs with pickle juice that no one has the heart to tell Uncle Bobby they can't stand.
Canada Day is fireworks at dusk and fiddle music 'till dawn. It is Flippy Cup and Beer Pong and Washoo. It is singing at the top of your voice to "Life is A Highway" and "Bud the Spud". It is sunburned noses and freckled shoulders and the smell of Deep Woods Off. It's maple leaf tattoos on babies cheeks and drive-by peltings with water balloons in the back of the Jeep.
Canada Day is pride and joy and laughter because Canada is the best place in the world to be.
