I definitely agree with the above statement. My wife and I have had the opportunity to spend time in various Canadian towns over the years, mostly along the Great lakes (while sailing) and have nothing but good to say about the canadians we have encountered.
Happy Canada Day!

Simon Fraser fought as MacShimidh, a Highland chief… wrapped and belted in a plaid over the top of his linen shirt, like his ordinary kinsmen. He put a bonnet on his head, and stuck the Fraser emblem, a sprig of yew, in it. With the battle cry, A'Chaisteal Dhunaidh and the scream of the pipes, they charged to battle.
