Vi feirer Canada i dag - Vår gode venn og alliert som vi kan stole på

 For oss som er med i VP Intl. mottar vi dette fine bladet.

Det er i dag fire dager siden Canada Day.

Canada Day er Canadas nasjonaldag. Den er en føderal lovfestet høytid og feirer årsdagen for Den kanadiske konføderasjonen, som fant sted 1. juli 1867, da de tre separate koloniene De forente kanadiske statene (Ontario og Quebec), Nova Scotia og New Brunswick ble forent til et enkelt herredømme innenfor det britiske imperiet, kalt Canada.
