yes, I agree... Canadians deserve recognition for what they have endured to become the nation they are today... Hope that Canada experiences a peaceful memorial day and that Canadians take the opportunity to remember how important they are in the world.

Thanks PF.

*pausing in silence to remember our Canadian brothers and sisters*

Many thanks to the one country who has stood by us in every crisis. May our international friendship last eternal!

It's nice to see some of you people considering our side, I just hope that more people think that way in the future, and I for one very much appreciate and return your thoughtfulness

I echo Zacks comments. Thank you!

I've got to say I definately agree with that sentiment. They've been through the wringer too. They also deserve some recognition and thanks from us.

So, THANKS!!!!!

Memorial Day???

News to me! We celebrate our heroes on November 11th, Remembrance Day!

But this is a special day, one of our warships limped home today carrying a wounded helicopter.


BORU

Thanks for the sentiments, as a Canadian patriot.

I support the U.S. fully and thank God that the world's greatest power rests with a country that is so just and democratic. Thank God!!!!!!!!

And when the day comes, that our two countries become one (it has to happen sometime) I will be the foremost AMERICAN patriot!!!!!!!!!!!

BORU

I received a PM from a sweet lady requesting that I get my head out of my ass. It was brought to my attention that this is NOT Memorial Day for Canada.

As well as being incredibly embarrassed, I am sincerely sorry for any confusion or offence I have caused.

I took this information from my Micro Soft Outlook 2000 (9.00.2711) Calendar. It allows me to add holidays for countries other than the USA to which I have added Canada among others. It DOES show “March 1, 2003” as “Memorial Day (Canada)”. Knowing that a number of your comparable observances, like Thanksgiving, are at a considerably different time, I did not question it.

This calendar shows me many obscure adherences such as Feb. 15- Spring Festival (Lunar New Year) (Hong Kong), Feb. 17-Family Day - Provincial Alberta (Canada), Feb. 6- Waitangi Day (New Zealand), that I am not familiar with and I chose to act without confirming this one.

Please consider this thread like you do with anything else I say and totally disregard it.
