July 1.
Once known as Dominion Day after the 72nd Psalm, "And he shall have dominion from sea to sea and from the great river to the ends of the earth." It recalled the Atlantic, Pacific and Arctic Oceans and the St. Lawrence River. It remains, for now at least, on Canada's Coat of Arms.
We are a nation that has lost its way.
It was founded by Catholics and its natives were protected and nurtured in the faith, there were no "Indian wars" here. Champlain, Montcalm, MacDonald, Cartier, would they recognise this land today and what it has become?
A nation that wipes out its generation of young in the womb and now sending its old to the tomb. It sanctions so-called "marriage" of the same-sex, stands by whilst the Court recognises that oral sex with an animal is just fine, legalises marijuana and more.
A nation that has two anthems, one which speaks of the Cross and the other asking God to keep us "strong and free." It is a mockery, they disgrace our history, our culture and the faith of our Fathers, - English and French, protestant and Catholic. Canada long ago under the father of our current Prime Minister became radically secularist. So much so that Catholic Prime Ministers - Trudeau, Clark, Mulroney, Chretien, Martin, and now Trudeau again, have betrayed their faith and their land.

Weep for her.
