Proud to be Canadian!


Canada (pronounced /ˈkænədə/) is a country occupying most of northern North America, extending from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west and northward into the Arctic Ocean. It is the world's second largest country by total area. Its common border with the United States to the south and northwest is the longest in the world.

I love to watch hockey and I was thrilled to watch Canada's Men's Hockey Team play against Russia. I am looking forward to watching Canada's Ladies Hockey Team play tonight!

I am proud to be Canadian and I don't think I say 'eh'. I am in the Contact Center Industry and speak often with people from various countries and various languages. I used to be a CSR and I recall having a particular gentleman teasing me 'about'. I used to tease him saying I was out and 'about' in 'aboot'. :)

Canada's experience with diversity distinguishes it from most other countries. Its 32 million inhabitants reflect a cultural, ethnic and linguistic makeup found nowhere else on earth.

Aren't we lucky???!!! Oh Canada.

*After note - Canada Women's Hockey Team won Gold.*
