Canada & USA - Happy Labour Day

Labour Day is an annual holiday to celebrate the achievements of workers. Labour Day has its origins in the labour union movement, specifically the eight-hour day movement, which advocated eight hours ...

I am so proud of Canada, we have a beautiful country with thirty million people. We have prairies and wide open spaces, Canada is known for that. Our northern part has mountains and rivers and is so beautiful. Niagara Falls which is only an hour from me, is a sight to behold.....

We always look at UK, Italy, Greece, and many other countries and think how beautiful they are and we want to go there.
In the meantime, they are looking at Canada and Niagara Falls and saying "oh, we have to go there".....

I am sure you are all proud of your countries too.....

Happy Holiday Canada and United States, enjoy your day....the kids are back to school next week, and life moves forward to enjoy a crisp winter with snow on the trees, bells ringing, and Christmas is just around the corner, time to celebrate with Family and Friends, getting ready to invite the New Year in, with hopes and dreams for 2019 to present many blessings for all kinds of people......

Re: Canada & USA - Happy Labour Day

The rest of the World celebrate 'International Labour Day' on 1st May every year, but because the Americans detest anything even remotely 'socialist' or 'Communist', they choose to be different and celebrate 'Labour Day' on a different date, nonetheless, happy Labour Day.

My apologies darlin'. Its not that I'm not fond of the US per se, - I can't come over there as I was an active member of the Communist Party and am therefore, persona non grata, besides which, my health will not permit me to fly for such a long period. I have relatives in Canada (Bramford) and I have friends (you???) who live in North America. My criticism of the US, is as I said earlier, their paranoia over anything remotely 'socialist' or 'Communist', even the AFL/CIO would be apoplexic if any of their members professed to be a 'Socialist'.

Of course I am your friend Uncle Joe....always have been, you know that XX

I remember you telling me that you have relatives in Brantford, which is very close to me (about 3/4 hr I think). You put Bramford, but I am almost sure you mean Brantford...check your little black book and let me know...

I don't know anything about politics honey, I stay clear of that as my mind would be aggravated I am sure. I have a hard enough time defending my Religion, so that is enough for me, hahaha.....

Thanks for adding my "darlin" Darling.....X

Thank you, UJ, for the side of the mouth compliment.

Just as we wouldn't attempt to judge all of the UK from a few opinionated folks, perhaps you would broaden your knowledge of other countries before you judge. It makes for a happier world to survive.

Loved your blue streak the other day. It looked awesome.
The silver one compliments the blue nicely as does the purple.
