I was a bit non-plussed by it as well. Subtle 
details of decency just don't seem to make an 
impression on some people. Tropical Marxist 
Paradise my ass.

How about a more temperate "Happy Canada Day to 
our friends north of the border that have fought 
beside our own in thick wars far from our shores 
and plucked our merchant men from the freezing 
ocean." Seriously, Canada is a damn good ally as 
are the other Commonwealth Nations. We may not 
see eye to eye on all things, but you guys are 
better than all the rest and I'd rather have 
Canada up north than some other nations.

So, 'Huzzah' for our Canadian Cousins!
