I Am A Proud Canadian!

 


This has been a tough week when our country is being bullied by one person who seems to hold so much sway to so many. I doubt you would not be happy if a country claimed you are the 20 province, county, state or whatever and be belittled. This happens right after many of our firefighters came to the aid of California's wildfires. Did you know that we have your banks here and never prevented them from being here. We are the ones tgat get more guns and fentynol from the U. S. Than the other way around. Just look it up. Anyways, I am not one to boo any anthem even though we are not the ones who started this big fight. We must remember that many don't want Canada to be part of the States...thank you! I hate it when things get ugly so I am going to bring 3 great Canadian songs from 3 great Canadian bands. I'm joining Monday Music Moves Me and here they are...

1. THE HOCKEY SONG BY STOMPIN' TOM CONNORS- 1973


This is an iconic Canadian song that goes perfectly with our classic Canadian sport. Do I watch hockey? Hahaaaaa...no, but it is iconic.

2. CANADIAN RAILROAD TRILOGY SUNG BY GORDON LIGHTFOOT-1966


Gordon Lightfoot is a true Canadian and an icon in music. We have many great, Canadian icons from music, Celine Dion, Rush, Joni Mitchell, Barenaked Ladies, yadda yadda yadda...

3. HOME FOR A REST BY SPIRIT OF THE WEST-2003


The music from the East is just wonderful often involving fiddle music and like another band I love, Great Big Sea, this song is fun and catchy. I could listen to the music from Newfoundland and Nova Scotia a lot of the time. 

I feel bad that your anthem was boo'd at and I hope you feel the same when ours was as well. May the people be strong together and weather this storm that never should be. Remember, Reagan loved free trade and believed in our friendship...I do too.
