Middle Lake hosts 90th sports day By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

With Canada celebrating their 150th birthday, members of the surrounding communities descended upon Middle Lake for their 90th annual sports day at Lucien Lake Regional Park. The sports day, which featured a slopitch tournament, a treasure dig at the beach, face painting, entertainment, a concert featuring the band Fastlane, and a beer gardens, among others, was a fundraiser for the Lucien Lake Regional Park, with money raised from the day helping to pay for its basic upkeep. The ball tournament, which is the main fixture of the day featured 20 teams, marking an increase over previous years, which was great to see, noted Lucien Lake Regional Park board member Dan Wytrykusz. “Tradition is something that’s important to this community and we don’t want to see the sports day go away… for a small village to get so many people coming here and taking advantage of the regional park, it’s a beautiful regional park and we want people to enjoy it.” Wytrykusz added that it was great to see so many people in the park in general, noting that they all seemed to be having fun. “That’s what we want to see. We want to have a fun day and make sure everyone has a good time. It’s a pretty relaxed and casual atmosphere here. It’s not a competitive tournament so it’s all geared towards having fun and lots of laughs.” The tournament, which is traditionally held on Canada Day was graced with good weather, which was also nice to see, says Wytrykusz. “It’s a perfect day for slopitch.” A number of volunteers stepped up to help out with this year’s event, which is critical to the overall success of the day, noted Wytrykusz. “Without the volunteers it doesn’t happen. But the reward is to see so many people having fun and enjoying themselves. That’s the reward for us is to

nized.” With this year being Canada’s 150th birthday Wytrykusz noted that this year’s sports day was a little more special. “It means a little more to the town.”

A dozen local students awarded for apprentice work By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

It was a lot of hard work and hoops to jump through but 12 local graduates are making their transition to post-secondary education a little easier with their Saskatchewan Youth Apprenticeship (SYA) scholarships. Only 100 graduates from across the province were awarded scholarships in varying trade industries with many more taking part in the Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC)’s SYA program. The program included an essay, interview with trades persons, job shadowing, and exam and provided students with a $1,000 scholarship, 300 credit hours towards their first year of study, and administrative fee waiver and tuition free first year as an apprentice, says CEO of Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission, Jeff Ritter. Shane Niebrugge took home the Nicholas Harold Korpan Scholarship during his graduation ceremony

on June 9. The 12 steps towards getting the scholarship involved additional applied arts classes, job shadowing, and a research project, says Niebrugge. Bruno Principal Lianne Borstmayer says that while many of her students were focused on school, Niebrugge was focused on school and work putting in time at two Humboldt businesses helping out in the heavy duty mechanic department. “He put a lot of time and effort into this, so I’m glad he can reap the benefits.” Come the fall, Niebrugge will become an apprentice for heavy duty mechanic. Devin Hordy graduated from Naicam School with the Husky Apprenticeship Scholarship and starting in the fall, Hordy will be working towards becoming an electrician at Saskatchewan Polytechnic. Hordy feels he gained a lot of knowledge about what to expect as a future electrician, including the number of hours worked. During his job shadowing, Hordy saw the difference as he followed a residential electrician from job to job. This is different from commercial electricians who stay on one job sight for extended periods of time, says Hordy. Having the opportunity to take part in the SYA program has benefitted him a lot, says Naicam Principal Tammy Riel. “The opportunity for him to be involved in SYA and be involved in the field that he is looking at for his future, receive the benefits from that program and then also be recognized for his efforts by receiving the scholarship has been a wonderful motivator for him.” Having this cross over between potential apprentice and journeyman helps students connect and gain knowledge before committing to apprenticeship programs, says Ritter. “It really is all about helping young people find their first choice career option and we believe the apprenticeship program can lead to incredibly re-

warding and satisfying careers.” Working towards that journeyman status, Ritter says the possibilities, from management positions, to regulatory to starting their own business, is endless once they achieve their journeymens. Giving students the opportunity to work in a field before graduation also allows them that time to discover their passions and what they want to do and how they learn. “Not everyone is well suited to learning in a classroom, sitting in lectures and receiving knowledge from a professor. Some people learn better by doing.” Learning in the way “you groove to,” says Ritter, is the trick to a happy life, whether that be through sitting in a classroom or getting out into the field and learning hands on.

Muenster raises money for community hall with Canada 150 event By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

With Canada celebrating its 150th birthday and the Muenster Community Hall celebrating its 50th birthday the community of Muenster hosted a Canada Day celebration to help raise money for the hall. Organizing committee member Chad Hofmann noted that having both anniversaries on the same year was great, and noted that it worked out well. “We just thought we’d tie it in together that way so it worked out to be a really good thing.” The Canada Day celebration featured a wide variety of fun for the whole family including baseball games going on throughout the day, a beer gardens, baseball bingo during the ball games, a show and shine, a supper, a street dance featuring Fourty Ounce Philosophy, and kids activities including a money sand pit, face painting, a tug of war, potato sac races, among others. Approximately 380 people took in the supper during the evening, which was awesome, says Hofmann, who noted when they first planned the evening they thought 200 would be a good turnout. “Then as the week went on we kept hearing that there was more and more people coming… so it turned out to be probably better than we expected.” Hofmann noted it was thanks to the community that they had enough food for everyone, saying those involved in organizing the supper and many community members graciously donated deserts and salads. The street dance saw more than 200 people in attendance, with Fourty Ounce Philosophy gracing the stage in Muenster for the first time. Volunteers played a big role in the overall success of the day, with Hofmann noting that if there are no volunteers it does not go over as well as it did. “Volunteerism is very good in our community so it’s not a huge surprise that as many people stepped up as they did but it’s always nice when they do that and have success with it.”

Overall Hofmann says the event was a huge success. “The weather was just about the best day we’ve had all summer and spring so that helped first of

all and then the amount of people that just kept on coming out it was a lot of fun for the committee members and it was a good day for our community.” Hofmann would like to thank all of the members of the organizing committee, as well as the volunteers for their hard work.

Merchants end 11 game skid By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

The Bruno Merchants’ search for their win of the season has come to an end. After losing their first 11 games of the season the Merchants picked up a 2-1 victory over the Saskatoon Diamondbacks U23 on June 27. Coming into the contest the Merchants were facing an uphill battle against the Diamondbacks U23 as they

were 0-3 and were outscored 26-12. It had not been from a lack of effort for the Merchants as they lost four of their first 11 games by just a single run, before finally getting over the hump. The win pushed the Merchants’ record to 1-11 on the season, leaving them in fourth place in the fourteam Keith McLean Division, 11 games back of the first place Delisle National Leasing Sr. Diamond Dogs.

The Merchants return to action on July 5 looking to extend their winning streak to three games as they take on the first place Diamond Dogs in a doubleheader. Heading into that matchup the Merchants face an uphill battle as they hold a 0-5 record against the Diamond Dogs, having been outscored 37-11 in the process.

Stay-cations do not get enough credit By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

USA Today, and no that is not a typo, has named their Top 10 Canadian Tourist Destinations and lo’ and behold, Saskatoon made it to number four. The top five are not really destinations that one would think touristy when thinking about Canadian destinations. When you think stellar tourist destinations who would think New Brunswick but there is St. Andrews at the top with Québec City, Que. and Lunenburg, N.S. beating out our fellow Saskatoonians with St. John’s, NFLD coming in at number 5. I do not know why we are so quick to dismiss Canadian destinations as valid travel options when there are so many beautiful places to see. I love this top 5 because they are gorgeous destinations and need to be seen. Despite this they do not receive as much credit as they should. It should be said that when Americans even know where you are, I think that alone is something to pay attention to. When it comes to summer travel destinations, why is outside of Canada the first place we think of? I realize that comparing a resort destination to say Saskatoon would very much be like comparing apples and oranges. With Saskatchewan, or even Canadian, destinations we are dealing with less expensive destinations, less work in planning, and no need for a passport. We are also dealing with destinations that are closer

to our roots and finding our own Canadian identity. In case you have not heard, this year is also a little thing called Canada 150. What better way of celebrating Canada than actually visiting some Canadian city that you have never visited before. I know, not only Saskatoon but Saskatchewan in general, is often dismissed as a questionable tourist destination. Travelling around Canada, you get the weird looks when you say you are from Saskatchewan because, no surprise there, everyone says there is nothing to do in Saskatchewan. Back in 2014, it was even voted the least beautiful province by survey company, abacusinsider.com, and yes, I have discussed this before. While we have a lot of competition in that regard with many beautiful places in Canada, there are some beautiful places to go in Saskatchewan with the Qu’Appelle Valley, Wanuskewin, and Saskatoon in my own personal top Saskatch-

ewan destinations. I want to see as much of Canada as I can before leaving for other destinations but I am realizing now how much of my own province I have not seen. How many of us can say we have been to Batoche (nope), Saskatchewan Landing (uh-uh), or Cyprus Hills (sorry). The best thing about living in a different province was the fact that I was both a tourist and a live in. Why are we not doing that more in our own backyards?

Riders’ fans hope Jones can right the ship By Bruce Penton Sports Columnist

The Calgary Stampeders have been the dominant team in the West for the last couple of years, and the Ottawa Redblacks are the defending Grey Cup champs, but Canada’s team in the Canadian Football League is undoubtedly the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Beloved in all of Saskatchewan, much of eastern Alberta and a good chunk of western Manitoba — not to mention pockets of habitation all over Canada where ex-Saskatchewan patriots have taken up residence — the Riders represent all that is right about the CFL. They’re from the smallest city in the league, have by far the most rabid and intense fanbase, have a fight song that is known from coast to coast (If you’re not familiar with ‘Green is the Colour; football is the game…’ then you’re not really a CFL fan), and — by far — sell the most team-related merchandise of all nine teams. In fact, there’s more Riders’ gear available in eastern Alberta stores than that of the Stampeders. Rachel Notley should investigate. But on-field performance hasn’t been kind to the Riders in recent years and the man on the hot seat this year as the Riders open their brand new Mosaic Stadium, is Chris Jones. The former Edmonton Eskimos’ coach was lured to Regina before last season (a reported $750,000 contract is a pretty good magnet) but he hasn’t exactly gone all Bill Belichick in the Wheat Province. Saskatchewan was coming off a 3-15 season in 2015 and among the first things Jones did was alienate some of the fan base by ridding the roster of two of the most popular players, receiver Weston

Dressler and linebacker John Chick. Had Jones guided the Riders to, say, an 11-7 season and a playoff berth, all would have been forgiven, but Saskatchewan went a pathetic 5-13. Two wins better, sure, but still a lastplace finish in the West. Riders’ fans were not amused. His next move this most recent off-season? Dumping another stalwart, quarterback Darian Durant, who was traded to Montreal. Veteran Kevin Glenn has been given the No. 1 QB job. Maybe Jones is like the mad scientist whose moves in the end will all make sense, and if they do, he could run for mayor, citizenship be damned. If they don’t, he can forget about any long-term leases because he’ll be less popular in Saskatchewan than wheat midge. • Rob Vanstone of the Regina LeaderPost: “The pre-season of 2017 was a change of pace for the Saskatchewan Roughriders, who typically save their meaningless games for October.” • Greg Cote of the Miami Herald: “Want the exact definition of ‘your football career is over’? Comeback-attempting Vince Young got cut by the Saskatchewan Roughriders.” • Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg: “The Golden State Warriors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers to win the NBA title.

Crop Report For The Period June 20 to 26, 2017 Despite the cool and dry conditions experienced so far, the majority of crops are in good to excellent condition, according to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s Weekly Crop Report. Sixty-five per cent of winter wheat, 54 per cent of fall rye, 70 per cent of spring wheat, 49 per cent of durum, 68 per cent of oats, 64 per cent of barley, 60 per cent of canola, 50 per cent of flax, 63 per cent of lentils, 61 per cent of soybeans, 65 per cent of peas, 34 per cent of chickpeas and 26 per cent of mustard are in good to excellent condition. Approximately 87 per cent of fall cereals, 62 per cent of spring cereals, 55 per cent of oilseed crops and 67 per cent of pulses are at or ahead of their normal stage of development for this time of year. Precipitation across the province varied widely last week, ranging from negligible amounts to 57 mm in the Nipawin area. Provincially, topsoil moisture on

cropland is rated as six per cent surplus, 61 per cent adequate, 28 per cent short and five per cent very short. Topsoil moisture on hay land and pasture is rated as five per cent surplus, 53 per cent adequate, 32 per cent short and 10 per cent very short. Many areas, particularly in the south, are in need of rain to help crops, hay and pasture grow. There were reports of frost in some areas of the south, and producers are assessing the damage. Haying is underway. Four per cent of the hay crop is cut and two per cent is baled or ensiled. Haying is furthest advanced in the southwest where 11 per cent of the crop has been cut. Hay quality is rated as six per cent excellent, 50 per cent good, 34 per cent fair and 10 per cent poor. Quality is lowest in the southeast where 21 per cent of the hay is rated as poor, thanks to less-than-ideal growing conditions during most of

the spring. Crop damage this week has been attributed to flooding, frost, wind and insects such as cutworms and alfalfa weevils. There are also reports of gopher damage to crops. Producers have nearly finished herbicide applications, but progress has been slowed by windy conditions. Producers are scouting for disease, applying fungicides and cutting hay. SaskPower has received 29 reports of farm equipment coming in contact with power lines so far in June. There have been 168 incidents in 2017. A complete, version of the Crop Report is available online at http://www.publications.gov.sk.ca/redirect. cfm?p=86132&i=99715. Follow the 2017 Crop Report on Twitter at @SKAgriculture.

What limit is there to ag tech?

Calvin Daniels The idea of robotic farming has been more science fiction than fact the last decade or so. There has been a vision among those in the indus-

try which foresaw the day of equipment crawling across fields without an operator in the ‘tractor seat’, but the arrival and spread of such tech has been slower in arriving than I had personally expected. Now my expectation may have been fuelled by decades of reading science fiction books, and watching sci-fi TV and movies as a preferred genre, but I also thought the idea of robotic tractors made sense. Two factors in farming in recent years have

been the increasing size of farms in terms of acres to cover, and the challenge of finding affordable staff with the skill set to operate field equipment worth a half million dollars or more. The two challenges for farmers are of course not unrelated. There has been a decades-long trend of farm size growth, and that seems unlikely to change without something truly dramatic happening. But there is a limit to how large a tractor can reasonably be, or how

wide an air seeder unit can be, and we seem to be flirting with the maximums already. So what is the future? It would seem logical that smaller units might return to the norm. Even from a company perspective you would sell more units per year, and the maintenance work spreads over more machines as well. That won’t happen if the units require someone sitting in the seat driving them around the field. The issue of finding qualified operators at a cost

that suits a farm’s operating budget is simply a barrier. But turn the power unit into an autonomous robot which traverses a field based on global positioning technology and you have a viable option. That the unit will be able to run 24/7 weather permitting, with the only stoppage being for fuel and service translates into significant acres covered even if units are scaled back from the mega tractors and cultivators in use today. Farmers are now aware

of the potential of robotic control, combines and grain carts have been married by such tech for a few years now, and that is just one current example of autonomous operation. That the growth of farm field robotics is the future of farming moving forward the next decade or two. The future of modern farming will be robotic power units at work hour after hour. And to think it was within the memory of many still alive when farming relied on the power of the horse.

It was a busy but fun day around Kelvington during their Kelvington 150 celebration on June 24.

There was something for everyone with plenty of food; with pancake breakfasts and plenty of Kelvington Kuisine options, a kids zone, face painting, bouncy house, wagon rides, tug-o-war, beef show, street dance and so much more. “Everything that we offered for activities and entertainment, that was why the crowd was so large

Bisons win fourth straight By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Looking to push their winning streak to four games the Bruno Bisons traveled to Saskatoon on June 27 to take on the Armadillos. After piling up 25 runs in their previous three wins the Bisons’ offense continued their strong run of play as they pushed nine runs across the plate to knock off the Armadillos 9-3. Cody Thiel picked up the win on the mound for the Bisons as he pitched four strong innings, before Maverick Gusikoski and Jason McRae combined to pitch the final three innings in the win. The Bisons were led offensively by Joel Kowalchuk, who finished 2-for-2 with five runs batted in. The win pushed the Bisons’ winning streak to four games, and improved their overall record to 9-4 on the season, good enough for a second place tie in the Saskatoon Men’s Baseball League A Division standings, three games back of the first place Wombats. Looking ahead the Bisons return to the field for a pair of games as they take on the Brewers at Leakos Field on July 4 and the Armadillos at Stonebridge North on July 7. The Bisons head into the week riding a high as they have picked up wins over both the Brewers and Armadillos, beating the Brewers 7-6 on May 16 and the Armadillos 9-3 last week.

because there was indeed something for everyone.� Considering the size of the event, the town had not done something of this magnitude ever, says Holowaty. So more was needed by way of sponsorship and volunteers and lots of people stepped up to the plate. There were also some big winners on the day, says Holowaty with the North Team successfully defending their reign against the South Team at the charity Tug-o-War event with Holowaty saying that they want to make this a more frequent competition. Duane Nakrayko played the street dance with the day finishing off with a 45 minute fireworks show.

not a little tired. The festivities ran from June 30 to July 2 with slopitch games, plenty of musical guests, a 70 float parade, a kids midway, and plenty to see and do throughout Jansen. Elke says that around 450 people registered with 700-1200 people taking in the events on Saturday. The weekend kicked off on Friday with a town wide scavenger hunt, ribbon cutting for the outdoor recreation centre, and cabaret featuring Fourty Ounce Philosophy. Fun continued on Saturday with the parade, program, and various kids events and entertainment opportunities with fireworks finishing off the day. The fun wrapped up on Sunday with an interdenominational church service, and various other fun events, finishing off with a wiener roast. With the weekend being such a success, Elke says it would not have been so well planned if it was not for such a great group of volunteers and people stepping up to the plate with the Lites up the Nite committee. Around 30 people organized with around 80 volunteers pitching in. Businesses also stepped with Affinity Credit Union and BHP helping out in big ways. This year was also something unique with the Quill Lake Accent staff and a few others coming out to help with the pancake breakfast. Elke says this was because they went out and helped out at their event last summer and traded events. “We shared our volunteers between us...it was nice and went well,� says Elke. The committee is made up of groups from across Jansen that come together to plan events. The committee is already planning for next year’s event.

Community effort makes for success at Leisureland By Becky Zimmer Journal Editor

There was plenty to do around LeRoy for Canada Day with a busy Leisureland inviting everyone out for events on July 1. General Manager Kevin Harcourt pulled double duty as an organizer and also a performer with two shows from the Cross Country Showband throughout the afternoon. Everyone came together for the day to make the day a success, says Harcourt, with the Town of LeRoy and LeRoy Recreation Board staff and volunteers, as well as LeRoy Leisureland staff all coming together to make sure the day went off without a hitch. With 10-15 volunteers from the town and the emergency services on call, it was a real community effort, says Harcourt. “Looking back on the day you realize how many people were involved.� The weather also cooperated with beautiful weather on Saturday. The day started with a pancake breakfast and had plenty of events for kids with kids supplying their own frogs for frog races, treasure hunts in the sand piles, and taking in Leisureland’s new pool. The day finished off with a bang, says Harcourt, with a 35 minute fireworks show and barbecue. With everyone coming and going, it was hard to get a count of everyone who took in the events, but Harcourt says that the two shows for the Cross Country Showband were full performances at their outdoor facility. With free admission to the grounds and so many people walking around and taking in the park, “there was really no way of doing it but it was a very big crowd,� says Harcourt. The Leisureland campgrounds were right full of people which is never a bad thing but everyone also was very welcoming, says Harcourt. “It was so nice to see three family trailers together and kids coming and going and bikes being rode around the park. It’s nice to see it come back to being used to capacity.�

The Leroy Leisureland Canada 150 celebration on July 1 was a huge success with two shows from the Cross Country Showband which included Kevin Harcourt, kids races, lots of swimming in the redone swimming area, and a barbecue supper. They finished off the day with a 35 minute fireworks display, says Harcourt photo courtesy of Kevin Harcourt

Viscount news By Sandra Reid Correspondent Under sunny skies this year, Meacham’s 9th Annual Show and Shine, organized by Meacham Historic and Cultural Society, was held on Father’s Day, June 18. Thirty-two vehicles including tractors, motorcycles, cars, trucks and a fire engine came from as far away as Moose Jaw, Tisdale, Saskatoon and Lanigan. The local area was well represented. Vehicles ranged from the 1940s to 2015. Along with a concession in the Community Hall, Meacham Museum set up a “Livelihood” exhibit. All forty-nine categories of local businesses in Meacham and area from the early 1900s to present day were represented. There was also an agricultural display, and work by local artists. Bill Matsalla returned with his model train exhibit.

Entertainment was provided by John Greenlaw from Colonsay. Two birthday cakes, along with balloons and flags, celebrated Canada’s 150th birthday and Meacham’s 105th. Happy Birthday was sung by the enthusiastic crowd that attended the day’s activities. Everyone appreciated the generous door prizes donated by businesses in Saskatoon, Humboldt, Watrous, Bruno, Meacham and area. Dennis Rosaasen of Saskatoon won the People’s Choice Award for his 1974 Mazda RX-4. Terry Schmid of Saskatoon took second place with his 1976 Trans Am and third place went to Dana Poncelet of Saskatoon for his 1980 Trans Am. On June 24, the Viscount Annual Golf Tournament was held in Lanigan at the golf course. There were 21 golfers that golfed and 23 people that at-

In life I loved you dearly, In death I love you still, In my heart I hold a place, That only you can fill. It broke my heart to lose you, But you didn’t go alone, A part of me went with you, The day God took you home. If tears could build a Stairway and memories a lane, I’d walk right up to Heaven and bring you home again.

Marysburg Royal Luke Strueby slaps a single back towards the pitcher during Saskatoon Senior Baseball League action. After struggling to put together a complete effort for much of the season the Royalso, got it right in their game last week as they routed the Saskatoon Outlaws.

After searching for a more consistent effort in all three phases, the Marysburg Royals put it all together in a dominant 10-0 victory over the Saskatoon Outlaws in Saskatoon on June 27. The offense, defense, and pitching all came through as the Royals made quick work of the Outlaws winning in five innings. Nick Anderson was spectacular on the mound for the Royals as he picked up the win pitching a complete game shutout, allowing just three hits total. Anderson was backstopped by a Royals defense that, for the first time since their season opener on May 15, a span of ten games, man-

The Royals were also boosted by pitcher Thomas Lessmeister, who made his debut in the outfield for the Royals and finished the game 1-for-3 with a run batted in. The win pushes the Royals’ winning streak to three games, and improves their overall record to 7-4 on the season, good enough for third place in the Saskatoon Senior Baseball League standings, 4.5 games back of the first place Saskatoon Stallions. Looking ahead, the Royals return to the field for an extremely busy week with four games in five days as they travel to Saskatoon on July 5 and 7 to take on the Stallions and Diggers, respectively before returning home in July 9 for a Sunday afternoon doubleheader against the last place Blue Jays.

Plunkett news By Deloris Sutherland Correspondent Our weather has been nice and warm. The rain showers are missing out in our area. We have been watering our yard and garden. We are hoping the rain will come very soon. A few places have recieved rain. Our deepest sympathy is extended to the Ray Germaine family on his recent passing. Dennis and Leona Credgeur were away to Saskatoon and enjoyed a western show. Several folks enjoyed the same show in Humboldt recently. Several folks enjoyed a steak supper at the Plunkett Hotel. It was a fundraiser for a little girl who has cancer. We wish her a speedy recovery.

Plunkett folks send their deepest sympathy to the family of George Koczka of Watrous on his recent passing. Plunkett folks also send their deepest sympathy to the Wilson and Turnbull family on the sudden passing of Cathy Turnbull of Saskatoon and from the Plunkett area. A large crowd attended a gathering in the Plunkett Hall on June 17 in Cathy’s memory. Keith and Wendy Cronk from Camrose, Alta. recently spent a few days in Watrous visiting Wendy’s brother, Doug Ball and other firends and relatives in the area. Get well wishes go out to anyone ill and in the hospital. We wish them a speedy recovery.

Canadians have lots to be proud of

By Christopher Lee Journal Reporter

Happy Birthday Canada. As I’m sure every one knows over the weekend we celebrated Canada’s 150th Birthday. As a Canadian it was a proud day for me. While I did have to spend the day working, and was not able to really take part in festivities in any one place, the pride I felt not only from within but from also the numerous people who were celebrating was palpable. We are so lucky to live in this country and while I think about that most days I took soon real time to reflect on how truly lucky we really are. We have universal health care, which means if we get sick we have far less we have to worry about in terms of financial ramifications to receiving health care, we do not live in constant war, and our governments, while maybe not doing the job we want, at least are not dictators, among a number of things. In addition to that we are home to the second largest land mass on the planet, and it is home to some incredible places, like the Rocky Mountains in B.C., Banff, Jasper, and Drumheller in Alta., the tunnel in Moose Jaw, and the Rideau Canal in ON., just to name a few.

We are also rich in history, despite being a teenager compared to most of our European friends. Our bravery has been shown during the wars with battles like D-Day and Vimy Ridge. Our success on the ice with wins in the ’72 Summit Series, or Olympic Gold on home ice in Vancouver also comes to mind. The War of 1812 was also a significant point in Canadian history, and while we were technically not a country yet Laura Secord’s bravery likely changed the course future Canada forever. We have also produced a number of people who have made significant contributions to the world, including Alexander Graham Bell, who invented the telephone, and environmental activist David Suzuki, as well as celebrities including the band Rush, and hockey players Wayne Gretzky and Gordie Howe, among a wide variety of great Canadians. This country has so much to be proud of and while we have made our mistakes, most notably with our treatment of First Nations, we still have so much to be proud of. Remember that. This is a great country and we have so much to be proud of. Happy Birthday Canada.
