I love my country. I believe that Canada is by far the best country in the world. For those of you from across the world that are reading this, I don't mean to sound conceited, so if it sounds like that, forgive me.
We enjoy four beautiful seasons - each one is uniquely different. In the winter, we get snow - and lots of it.
In the spring flowers bloom and the grass gets green.
In the summer, it is hot and we have thousands of fresh water lakes to cool down in - not to mention the three oceans that surround us.
In the fall (Autumn) the leaves turn brilliant reds, orange and yellow.
Yes, Canada is a kaleidoscope of colours:)
We have the Rocky Mountains in the West, and the cliffs of Newfoundland in the East. We have the Arctic in the North and the Great lakes in the South. We have fresh water, clean air, blue skies and green forests all through the Dominion.
We have the right to vote. The freedom to practice personal religion. The freedom not to practice religion. We have Universal health care for all Canadians. We are free to go from British Columbia to Newfoundland anytime we want.
Our culture is unique and complicated. We have two official languages - French and English. Different regions of our country are diverse, yet we all try get along. We'd rather sit down and talk an issue over than fight...unless we're playing hockey.
Canada has two official sports - Hockey in the winter, Lacrosse in the summer.
Yes, I'm glad I live in Canada !
