Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier,
Canada’s seventh Prime Minister,
is known for these words;
“Canada is free and freedom is its nationality.”

July first a celebration of Canada Day,
Elle commémore la création de la Confédération canadienne
par l’Acte de l’Amérique du Nord britannique, qui prit
effet le 1er juillet 1867.

What fitting way to honour and pay respect
to the freedoms bestowed by the
Constition Act of 1867 than by the
humble Maple Leaf, a symbol of Canada
A symbol, too, of peace, unity and tolerance.

The Maple Leaf embraces the qualities of Love
enriched with a rich sweetness,
embodied with a pure wonder,
a Love of Life itself.

The Maple Leaf forever
The ties of Love are ours
Canada’s fair domain has for its
emblem, the Maple Leaf held dear.

“Let them look to the past, but let them also look to the future;
let them look to the land of their ancestors, but let them look
also to the land of their children.”~Laurier
