Sometimes reminiscing the past is all we need, to push ourselves little farther, to get motivated for the future, to make present all glorious, and above all... to LIVE. Canada day is all about remembering what we have lost and what we have gained. To unite with every single people of the country, showing that we are not divided by any mean and prove the world that we are just ONE NATION!
