yeah... I was just seeing if people thought it was a good idea I was with a group of about 25 people and someone asked if they were doing anything for Cananda day rhis year and right away some said well if it falls on a weekend this year we will be doing lots and that was the general consensuses , that people really only celebrated it when it fell on weekends..I thought celebrating it was a good thing oh well party on Garth yeah party on ........
-
dates are for historians events are for people....when it falls on a tues. through thrus. I don't do anything to celebrate it but I do when it falls on a long weekend.............. but no problem..note fisherman, not invited to canada day BBQ
-
no I don't and in my opinion I would be making it better not diluting it ... and I don't see the relevance in talking about a religious date... so I will put you down as a NO vote...got it

Available in 12" (Shadzilla) and 9" (Shadzilla Jr) The soft plastic Shadzilla can be use for trolling or casting. The tail action has a very unique action. Rather than the normal side to side movement you might normally see on a pogy tail style swimbait, the Shadzilla tail actually rotates and causes the body to roll back and forth mimicking a swimming baitfish. We also produce the 7" version without a jighead. 12" Shadzilla - $16.99 9" Shadzilla - $10.99 will that do

good to see people getting out but must say I read it twice because first time I thought it said perch and pike on Simcoe but after rereading I noticed that he really didn't say where he caught the pike, but rather had perch simcoe and pike all in the same sentence....Like many speed readers and get it wrong if you don't go back and double check.........lol nothing like getting people going on a thurs.
-
well that is basically right, but they do sometime check and add duty even if it is below 40 and if you have had other things sent from the states they will hit you almost every time and the carrier, UPS is nasty, they get to charge a broker fee whether it's duty free or not and UPS uses a "crown and anchor wheel", that they stole from some Lions Club, to see what the fee of the day is for brokerage. as Wayne said
-
Wayne, my mother always move the celebration of our birthdays to the weekend, so we could have a party and a sleep over with friends.............really neighbors neighbours color colour...... ZEEEE ZED one's English one America it's all good

I like your ideas too but what can we sell to the gov.

Guys, what do you think. I want to start a petition to have Canada day changed to the first Friday in July from always being held on July first…….what do you think….read Most of this I am just putting down my thoughts, I will fix up the wording and what not later….. Canada Day you can skip over the stuff in blue Canada's national celebration is always observed on July 1, unless that date falls on a Sunday, in which case it is observed the following day….I would like to change that On June 20, 1868, a proclamation signed by the Governor General, Lord Monck, called upon all Her Majesty's loving subjects throughout Canada to join in the celebration of the anniversary of the formation of the union of the British North America provinces in a federation under the name of Canada on July 1st. The July 1 holiday was established by statute in 1879, under the name Dominion Day. There is no record of organized ceremonies after this first anniversary, except for the 50th anniversary of Confederation in 1917, at which time the new Centre Block of the Parliament Buildings, under construction, was dedicated as a memorial to the Fathers of Confederation and to the valour of Canadians fighting in the First World War in Europe. The next celebration was held in 1927 to mark the Diamond Jubilee of Confederation. It was highlighted by the laying of the cornerstone by the Governor General of the Confederation Building on Wellington Street and the inauguration of the Carillon in the Peace Tower. Since 1958, the government has arranged for an annual observance of Canada's national day with the Secretary of State of Canada in charge of the coordination. The format provided for a Trooping the Colours ceremony on the lawn of Parliament Hill in the afternoon, a sunset ceremony in the evening followed by a mass band concert and fireworks display. Another highlight was Canada's Centennial in 1967 when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II attended the celebrations with Parliament Hill again being the backdrop for a large scale official ceremony. The format changed in 1968 with the addition of multicultural and professional concerts held on Parliament Hill including a nationally televised show. Up until 1975, the focus of the celebrations, under the name "Festival Canada", was held in the National Capital Region during the whole month of July and involved numerous cultural, artistic and sport activities, as well as municipalities and voluntary organizations. The celebration was cancelled in 1976 but was reactivated in 1977. A new formula was developed in 1980 whereby the National Committee (the federal government organization charged with planning Canada's Birthday celebrations) stressed and sponsored the development of local celebrations all across Canada. "Seed money" was distributed to promote popular and amateur activities organized by volunteer groups in hundreds of local communities. The same approach was also followed for the 1981 celebrations with the addition of fireworks displays in 15 major cities across the nation. On October 27, 1982, July 1st which was known as "Dominion Day" became "Canada Day". Since 1985, Canada Day Committees are established in each province and territory to plan, organize and coordinate the Canada Day celebrations locally. Grants are provided by the Department to those committees. I would like to start a petition to have Canada Day with they hold on July 1 change to the first Friday in July. The Gov. thinks we need to celebrate Canada Day on the date it was signed, so we are celebrating the date as much as the event I would like to change it so it’s a long weekend and we are celebrating the event not the day. After all are we not celebrating the fact that we became Canada ,not that we did something on July first 1876 What I have found is when Canada day doesn’t fall on a day making a 3 day weekend , I get a day off during the week but I don’t do anything to celebrate Canada Day. After all I have to get up for work the next day the kids have to get up and go to the baby sitter. But when Canada Day falls on a weekend we go to some of the Canada Day events that go on and the fireworks at night and most of the weekend becomes a celebration of Canada.. Canada Day should be a celebration of the event, so the date it is held on should be of less importance then getting people to recognize the event and celebrating the event. A long weekend allows it to happen Leave the date to history lessons in school, where the actual date may be as important as the event. Lets celebrate Canada and Canada Day with a 3 day weekend of events that remind up how great this country is…. If people are interested we could get an on-line petition and send emails to everyone we have in our address book…or should I shut up and go fishing… maybe try to get a private members bill to change it........
