This is a special core memory for me. Seven years ago on April 6th, 2019 it was a special day for me when I first laid my eyes on this country called Canada. In these days I reaffirm my affection for this wonderful place and its people. O Canada you are a great home and native land.
Oh God, please be with the sovereign nation of Canada as they go to the polls on Monday to elect members of parliament and the prime minister. May everyone who votes be safe and secure. May the best people be elected to move Canada into a prosperous era where the country will do good things for the world and one another.
The world needs more Canada! I am supporting this wholly great sovereign nation against those from my country, the United States, who want to do harm to it.
This question is an easy one. Canada. I love Ontario and have visited Toronto, Brampton, and Niagara Falls. I would also entertain New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, or Prince Edward Island. Calgary looks like an interesting place. I hear Montreal is beautiful too but I am not bilingual. Saskatchewan would be interesting too especially Regina.
Canadians have to pay attention to the politics going on in their country. The poison of American right-wing extremism and MAGA is spreading north of the border. Be aware of what is going on and keep Canadian conservatives accountable for the stuff they are talking about. Pierre Poilievre is not a good person. Also, take care of people on the margins like LGBTQ and others who have enjoyed civil rights for years. I believe in you Canada. I love you.
Wildfires are wreaking havoc in Eastern, Central, and Alberta Canada. I hope those impacted will be safe and cared for. I love Canada and may those fires be extinguished as soon as possible. May those working to put the fires out have what they need to get things under control to save lives and property and more.
