What was I thinking! 🧱 lol. Mistakes happen, but when I think of Canada, that was one of the first bands to come to mind for whatever reason.

I only have 4 Canadian bands on my chart, but they're all in my top 40. Godspeed, Do Make Say Think, Broken Social Scene, and Arcade Fire. Canada's pretty cool. Oh I also have Neil Young on my chart but it's Neil Young and Crazy Horse, so mixed nationalities. Still Neil Young though. One more for Canada.

Went to a barbecue where I ate moose steak, drank rye, listened to lots of Canadian music (Shadowy men on a shadowy planet, rural Alberta advantage, woodpigeon, mountaineer, The saides, chixdigit, and the dudes) and smoked Cuban cigars (which feel very Canadian) Now I'm settling in to watch some trailer park boys.

Feeling pretty dang patriotic right now, Canada is the bomb

July 1st, 1867 we negotiated our independence as an act of British Parliament. Very civil and orderly.

Fireworks, concerts, and drinking. Maybe going to the lake. No chest-thumping or xenophobic slogans.

I'm no expert but I think it's like St George's day but with more of a fireworks night party vibe than a skinheads chanting nationalist songs sort of vibe.

I'm a big fan of Canada, my family and I go up to the Maritime provinces every year (New Brunswick and the like). Good stuff! We used to go to Alberta (esp. Calgary)/British Columbia a lot in the past, but now airfare is too much.

But yeah, yay Canada!
