Eh?!..

Readers Choice: 
English
O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
 
French
 Ô Canada!
Terre de nos aïeux,
Ton front est ceint de fleurons glorieux!
Car ton bras sait porter l'épée,
Il sait porter la croix!
Ton histoire est une épopée
Des plus brillants exploits.
Et ta valeur, de foi trempée,
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.
Protégera nos foyers et nos droits.

Yes.. sometimes when I travel I really wish I were Canadian..  Why? Because who hates Canadians?? Nobody.. well, probably almost nobody..  The closest I've come to Canadian citizenship is when once upon a time long, long ago found myself dating a Quebecois boy and sometimes when that desire for Canadian citizenship comes up I question why I ever left him.  He was sweet, but distance can be evil at times.  I did keep a few things from that relationship other than a lot of French Canadian curse words (which are hilarious to learn and implement into your vocabulary) I also gained 15lbs from a new found  love of poutine  and maple syrup in any form I could get a hold of it, especially in coffee or booze.    

 
i don't freshen breath but i am a delightfully, wickedly, sweet morsel of maple heaven and you may buy me at your nearest world market for giving sweet maple kisses, xo
