Wishing Everyone a Safe, Active and Healthy CANADA DAY Weekend and 4th of July CELEBRATIONS!

The Canadian parliament in 1982 changed Dominion Day to Canada Day and now on every July 1st Canadians celebrate the country heritage with parades, picnics, face paintings, barbeque's and fireworks.

For all those that might be interested in knowing, Canada came from the Iroquois and Huron Indian word Kanata which means village. 

Canada supplies the world with over 75% of maple 
syrup and has three million lakes scattered across the country with over 30,000 of our lakes larger than three square kilometers.

In 1945 the Netherlands gave Canada 100,000 tulip bulbs as a thank you gift for keeping the Dutch Royal Family safe during the Second World War as the Nazis occupied the Netherlands until Canadian soldiers liberated their country in 1944/45. 

In 1987 our Canadian lonnie a one dollar coin replaced the one dollar paper bill as the last paper one dollar paper bill was issued two years later in 1989.

The world’s only flying saucer launching pad was built in 1967 in St. Paul Albert Canada. 

Canada has the world’s largest indoor mall in Alberta, known as the west Edmonton Mall with over 800 stores, restaurants, 26 movie theaters, a hockey ice arena and an amusement park with the world’s largest indoor lake with four working submarines.



I believe that as Canadians we must encourage different cultures NOT to live separate or segregated lives within Canada but come together as Canadians,within the laws of Canada,in support of equality for all and universal human rights as guaranteed under our Canadian constitution.     


Have a safe, active and healthy Canada Day weekend and enjoy also the July 4Th Celebrations of our USA neighbours.

Drugs, Guns, Violence and Lawless Protesters, We Let it Happen to Us

 

We the taxpaying, nonvoting and voting public have allowed Canada, our communities and cities, to disintegrate into morally disgusting lifestyles of arrogance, handouts for non-existing entitlements, disrespect for human life and law and order, perversion and a Hollywood overfed sexual and drug culture immorality.

We have permitted non-elected bureaucrats and technocrats to be appointed into positions of setting policy based, on their reasons and speech, without any directly elected accountability or authority from the citizens at large.   

Their policies have revolved around deciding for us the cradle-to-grave decisions that once were democratically reserved solely for families and individuals.

Decisions and policies that have seen and been far more concerned with the well-being and life of animals, birds and bees, rather than human life and the individual's responsibility within our fragile democratic civil society.

These unelected De facto elements within our democratic society are supported, financed and backed by special interest groups, unions and political parties of all stripes.


The fact that they are unelected yet purport to be representatives of the masses to protect themselves should this new world order as they collectively envisioned collapse and once again be destroyed as was the tower of Babel. 


This weekend's shootings at one of Toronto's major tourist attractions and shopping malls highlight a city and society that is out of control of the politicians, police and law-abiding citizens.

No longer can we as a democratic society allow such barbaric behaviour to play itself out within our subways, malls, schools and on our streets.

Both the gunman and his intended victim are equally blamable along with their friends, associates and families for covering up and condoning the illegal activities of both these individuals. As such they are just as responsible because of their individual failure to alert the police and others about these two dangerous disrespectful selfish individuals.   

We as a society should be mourning the decay of our civil society and start demanding action and punishment for all those remotely connected with such criminal behaviour.

When will our politicians, judges and courts be prepared to take the lawlessness and criminal activities of gangs, thugs masked protesters and others with a degree of seriousness, not just a slap on the wrist, or step down and leave the reins of power in the hands of elected representatives of the public in the justice system and police services boards who can and shall listen and be fully accountable to the electorate?

No longer can we allow unelected individuals to occupy the chairs of decision-making.
