Good morning . . .
As we agonize over mistakes of our past – things that did not turn out the way the dreamers hoped or anticipated – we ponder how to honour our country and Sir John A. - the man whose drive and vision created this country while acknowledging and regretting his failings and the consequences that he did not foresee.
And yet, I do not regret not being the 51st state of American. I am grateful for those who gathered in Charlottetown and set Canada on its course of being and who travelled to England and convinced Queen Victoria that Canada would be a worthy gem in her Imperial Crown.
My thoughts, this day . . .
Blessings on all and Happy Canada Day, warts and all!
