Of course I am. I’m Canadian. I have every reason to be.
I love this country. I love being Canadian.
Honestly, when I was young it sometimes felt a bit small or a bit embarrassing to be Canadian, especially when compared to the US. We were the runt of the litter. We were not cool.
But that’s completely changed.
We are super cool. We’re smart. We’re funny. We’re industrious. We’re successful.
Most of all we care.

In Manitoba it’s Louis Riel Day. He was a Metis leader and fighter who died fighting for what he believed in. I’m enjoying this extra day off to get stuff done around the house.
Taz is home from Australia and Bella-Lena is home from Winnipeg for Reading Week so the house is full, the grocery bill is high and there’s never a dull moment. Happy Monday.
