And what better way for me to have gotten geared up for Canada Day than to make myself a Canada Cool board on pinterest? There's some of my favourite Canadian stuff on there, plus a taste of the beauty of this country.
When are your country's national celebrations? If you mark these occasions, how do you celebrate?

I love the idea of a Canada Cool board. I just might have to make one of my own...
As an American, I will be "celebrating" Friday- this mostly consists of sedating my pets so they don't have a freakin heart-attack due to the anxiety of bombs going off all around them. Obviously, I'm not a fan. I do love the food and sun-drenched weather and the hanging out with friends. But when the sun goes down, I go home to comfort my furry friends (no, I'm not talking about the yarn stash :)
PS Happy Canada Day!
Our National day in Australia is 26 January. It marks the date that Australia was claimed as a colony. Like many Australians the day is tinged with a confusion of emotions as we have a strong population of original peoples - the first Australians who are not happy about the invasion and generations & generations on are still suffering displacement and cultural struggles. It's a hard day to celebrate as a compassionate white person, but also difficult to know what to replace it with!
