It's gonna be a great day (except for the weather). My son and I are riding our China quads in the local parade alongside our Church float.

Pics to follow as available.

Today I celebrate new taxes, thank you Mr. Campbell.

Aside from provincial politics, and Harper as well.... I am still very happy to live in Canada, I'll probably see you drive by in the parade Derryk.

The Molson idea sounds good. Happy CD to all our Canadian friends. Not that I'm a whole lot south of you all....

Idaho shares a border with British Columbia. I wish all our Canadian brothers a Happy Canada Day.

Thank you for sharing the great photos, W&G! Your church parade float was very nice, and your quads look great decked out with the Canadian flags.
