Thank you, and likewise!
In Days of yore,
From Britain's shore
Wolfe the dauntless hero came
And planted firm Britannia's flag
On Canada's fair domain.
Here may it wave,
Our boast, our pride
And joined in love together,
The thistle, shamrock, rose entwined,
The Maple Leaf Forever.
The Maple Leaf
Our Emblem Dear,
The Maple Leaf Forever.
God save our Queen and heaven bless,
The Maple Leaf Forever.
At Queenston Heights and Lundy's Lane
Our brave fathers side by side
For freedom's home and loved ones dear,
Firmly stood and nobly died.
And so their rights which they maintained,
We swear to yeild them never.
Our watchword ever more shall be
The Maple Leaf Forever
Our fair Dominion now extends
From Cape Race to Nootka Sound
May peace forever be our lot
And plenty a store abound
And may those ties of love be ours
Which discord cannot sever
And flourish green for freedom's home
The Maple Leaf Forever
Happy Canada Day.
Wow! The Maple Leaf Forever. FLASHBACK! Thoughts of a less politically correct time and some say better, tag football on school grounds, taking PB&J sandwiches for lunch, actually walking for 15 minutes to school. Ya, I was in Elementary School the last time I sang this song and flew this flag.
Time to go and train on some professional ribs at Centennial Park and then finish off with some excellent amateur steaks and the like at a family BBQ. There are a couple of Cordon Bleu grads in the clan and they often bring a surprise or two to offer up.
HAPPY CANADA DAY! I have been so excited that I couldn't sleep and woke up 1 1/2hr before my alarm....Let the festivities begin 
Happy Canada Day to all of you! For those of you in Toronto, I hope you enjoy the absolutely gorgeous day outside!
And have a great 4th yourself.
Nice to see a posting of the Maple Leaf on Dominion Day. Reminder of better days.

Canada day, and of all days the british royals chose this day to come here. Shameful.
You just couldn't stay away and keep your soiled drawers out of this thread. Your knowledge and understanding of the monarchy and the Royals has been shown to be totally superficial and lacking in hard facts over and over again, but i'll give you credit. You at least use to try and defend your position, unlike other flamers in this thread who just vent and flea.
The audacity of these people, arriving on Canada Day to celebrate Canada Day in Canada's capital. If they arrived tomorrow, the celebration would be over. Next time they should maybe call you up and ask permission. Don't hold your breath.
