It's Canada and U.S.A. Friendship Festival time again!
Edited on Fri Jun-27-08 12:30 PM by glarius
I live in Southern Ontario where we share a border with the U.S.A. I thought I would point out the fact that this is the 22nd year of this festival, between Fort Erie and Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Buffalo, N.Y. , celebrating Canada Day, July 1st. and the American 4th of July. We have always had a friendly, relationship between the two countries and many of us have friends on both sides of the border. George Bush and his buddies have not been able to spoil this friendship and I thought, at this time in your history, it was worth pointing this out.:toast:
I really believe the unique, unbroken peace between our two countries is a wonderful thing to celebrate!
Here are some links explaining activities:
