July 1, 1867-Present
Jul. 1st, 2010 11:01 amI'd like to wish a happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians, a happy Dominion Day to my fellow traditionalists, and a happy Memorial Day to those of the Newfoundland persuasion!
Our fair Dominion now extends
From Cape Race to Nootka Sound;
May peace forever be our lot,
And plenteous store abound:
And may those ties of love be ours
Which discord cannot sever,
And flourish green o'er freedom's home
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!
