Title: Happy Canada Day!! Post by catlind on Jul 1st, 2003, 7:43am To all my fellow Canadians Have a safe and happy Canada Day!!! Some trivia for those who are interested: Who was Canada's first prime minister? Name the provinces and territories. What province was the last to join the dominion? What year and what prime minister brought the 'constitution' home to Canada? What is the capitol of Canada, and what WAS the capital of Canada? Who said: Take off eh, it's a beauty way to go, hoser? Cat I AM Canadian (in the Molson sense of course ;) ) |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by brain_cramps on Jul 1st, 2003, 10:19am Happy Canada Day!!! I'm celebrating by having finished moving. Lotsa Kokanees later on today. ;D I was up until 1AM, and up again at 4:45AM to finish cleaning before anyone else was around. I went to the park at 7AM and sat reading a book in the sun and watching the joggers and bladers. Only a couple of hours and its back to the park for 'festivities'. ;D Have a good one, eh, grant 8) P.S. I'm not gonna be online for a while (not sure how long that is). Everybody play nice now, ya hear! (Margi: I found the nicest little Westinghouse box underneath Crowchild Trail bridge overlooking the river with a mountain view. ;)) |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by Ann on Jul 1st, 2003, 2:30pm Echo!! Not bad at all! I'm pleasantly surprised! Your missing Manitoba, Yukon (like Sherry said) Nova Scotia, and Nunavit territory (but that's a new one so you are forgiven! ;D It was Newfoundland but in 1949. It was Pierre Elliot Trudeau in 1982... created quite the stink too! LOL Ottawa is the current capital...Kingston was the former. And I'm so impressed you know Bob and Doug Mackenzie! Too cool! Hang loose! hugs Ann |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by echo on Jul 1st, 2003, 3:23pm I think it came from the Chipowadian tribe meaning Big Tree with Dead Squirel and Moose. |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by catlind on Jul 1st, 2003, 7:18pm hehe I'm impressed Echo and Sherry!!!! Very good job indeed :) Although I think Nunavit means Big Tree, Beaver, Canoe and Moose ;) We wandered up to Kingston to Lake Ontario Park for the celebrations. Good time had by all, missed getting my Canadian shirt AGAIN! Dammit! Hope everyone in the great white north has a great time at fireworks tonight :) Cat |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by oringkid on Jul 1st, 2003, 7:33pm Well of course Cat, if you have a Moose and a Beaver in a canoe, you should expect to run into a Big Tree! Cuz ya know the Moose is gonna make the Beaver steer! Happy Canada Day (forgive me, but... Canada day? Seems a bit lame for people who came up with so many very unique and interesting names for things! LOL) We in the states will be following you shortly with the festive festivities! Sherry, whose origins can be traced back to les Acadiens! (at least on my fathers side!) |

Title: Re: Happy Canada Day!! Post by catlind on Jul 1st, 2003, 7:40pm I too will be celebrating on the 4th! I have the rare luxury to say I'm a dual citizen :) (at least almost, waiting on my citizenship still for the US), anyone wanna come to my swearing in? hehe Never thought about things that way, but you're right, if the beaver steers.... well, all I know is that when Canada offers their military services after the exchange rate you end up with a Beaver a Moose and a Canoe LOL Cat |
