You need to travel the world to really see how good it is to live here in Canada. As I like to say, "We're not sexy but we're good!"
I tip my red hat to Stompin Tom Connors, Gordon Lightfoot, Gordon Pinsent, Anne Murray, Hank Snow, the Mackenzie Brothers with their beer, Gordon Sinclair, Lloyd Roberts, Tommy Douglas who gave us medicare, the great author Pierre Burton, Terry Fox, Celine Dion, Wayne Gretzky, Nelly McClung, Peter Gzowski, Michael J. Fox, Bob Nolan who wrote "Cool Water," one of my all time favourite cowboy songs, David Suzuki, country singer, Tommy Hunter, fiddler, Don Messer, Lorne Greene, Jim Carey and even some of those politicians like Sir Wilfred Laurier, Pierre Trudeau and "the Chief" John George Diefenbaker. Have I missed any? Sure I have! Some moved to the US to get more money but deep down they were still Canucks & I am proud to share this country with them.
