Happy Canada Day

Canada is happy, proud, strong, free.
It's cold, rocky and wild.
It's soft, green and filled with growing things.

It is the rolling waves and the deep cravasses.
It's dusty tracks and smooth highways.
It's the sound of birdsong, and the Northern Lights.

It is every city and every small town.
It's the martini bar and the campfire.
It's the wealthy and the poor.

It is friendly and sorry.
It's welcoming, forgiving and fierce.
It's joyful, brave and 150 years young.

Canada is still just an idea really. 
It's a good one.
