\nHappy Canada Day! Happy 150th Birthday to the Country I was born in and the Country I Love!
\nToday is about celebrating the great nation that is Canada \u2013 a country that brought us Ryan Gosling, Justin Bieber, that man in the green mask and maple syrup. Oh yes and mounted police.
\nMillions will commemorate the date Canada became a fully fledged nation in its own right with feasts, fireworks, parades and red and white flags.
\nHere are some great quotes to share as well as some patriotic songs to sing.<\/p>\n

\n10) Canada\u2019s the best country in the world. Justin Bieber
