Happy Canuck Day


Recommended Posts

Yes I too want to wish all my Canadian neighbors a happy Canadian day. I also wish the Vancouver Canucks a good season. They play in the NHL

Oh I just went to Mr. Google and discovered

Canuck" /kəˈnʌk/ is a slang term for a Canadian. The origins of the word are uncertain. The term "Kanuck" is first recorded in 1835 as an Americanism (American term), originally referring to a Dutch Canadian or French Canadian.

Thank you! It's not only Canada's 150th birthday... it's also the 50th anniversary of my becoming a Canadian Citizen in 1967. I love being a Canadian and I'd still live there if the weather didn't suck so badly.
