For all Canadians on The Men's Forum!

For All the Canucks here on the Men's Board-   Happy Canada Day!!! Hope It's a Great One! Best Wishes- Dx

Thanks for the mention I as a canuck appreciate it...

OK, Curious… So is it Grilling out, swatting mosquitoes, and enjoying a few beers? And some parades for the kids (like our 4^th of July?) Or more like Labor Day?- (Stay home and rent DVD’s) I’ve been in Toronto for a few Caribana Festivals (each time over a week of festivities) and those are serious “Throw-Downs” as parties go. How ever you celebrated the Day, I hope it was a good one! Best Wishes- Dx

It is usually some throw down parties at peoples houses in the community there are parades and we do some serious fireworks in the city centers.It is very much like your 4th of July.We grill out in the parks and we definitely have mosquitos to swat.(Not just this weekend)I have to say Caribana is much larger though.I am sad to say actually that a celebration of an individual culture in Canada overtakes the actual celebration of the birth of our country.We need to reclaim it as a celebration of every culture that makes up the country of Canada.Then we could actually be Canadian not individual groups or cultures living within geographical areas.Sorry got off on a rant there.And thank you again for the Canada Day wishes.

I don't think the Canadians do much outside in early July, they usually wait until mid-month, when it stops snowing.  OK, just kidding.  Happy Canada Day from a no-I'm-not-but-my-mother-was!  Lets all hear it for Port Elgin, Ontario!

Thanks brother!  I live in Ottawa, which is the Capital of Canada, and here we have huge outdoor parties all over the city, with a tonne of fireworks, beers, and bbq.  Cheers for the 4th for you guys! 

Thank you ro remembering us Dx.  To celebrate or Canada day we went to this festival and had the following: Polish sausage, Brussel sprouts, Belgian waffles, Greek salad, Turkish delight, Russian salad, French fries, Spanish onions etc.. etc... and a lot of "Molson Canadian" Beer. We drunk the kegs dry. We were supposed to go and see fireworks tonight but I don't think any one of us is in any shape to go out again. Have a good rest of Canada Day and a Happy 4th of July to everyone, George L.

thanks Dx....proud to be a canuck! celebrated by doing some gardening, emails and then sat out on the back patio and had a couple of beers.... nothing really special this year....just a solid bit of canuck pride is all! Jim
