If anyone with more internet skills than me is bored and wants to see the best O Canada ever, try to find the one from the Toronto Boston game back on November 9th 2013. It was a military guy singing it because of Remembrance Day. It was pure awesome.

Happy Canada Day!

Canada Day in Brazil (or Jebus Loves Canada!)

How cool is this? One of the most iconic statues in the world giving us the nod.

It doesn't get much better than Canada Day on the Mira River.

Happy Canada Day everyone.

Happy Canada Day from the middle of nowhere Vietnam. Vietnam is great but visiting here makes me really happy and proud to be Canadian. Hope you all had a great day.

The Canada events this year were awesome. The fireworks off Centre Street bridge are the best new tradition. Riverfront Ave and the Riverwalk were PACKED.

The only disappointing part is the "Night Market" in Chinatown was totally shut down already at 9:30.

Yeah, the city was definitely hoping last night. The fireworks were perfectly placed so i got a great view from my balcony. Scared the crap out of my daughter, but hey, that's the price you pay for freedom.
