953 nut 51,915 #1 Posted February 15, 2017 On February 15, 1965 our national flag was raised for the first time on Parliament Hill. Every year since 1996, when Parliament declared February 15th as National Flag of Canada Day, we celebrate our beautiful flag. In 2017, the National Flag of Canada is celebrating its 52nd anniversary. Canadians are invited to celebrate this important symbol of our identity by organizing their own events and by showing their pride on social media. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tunahead72 2,346 #4 Posted February 15, 2017 Congratulations to our neighbors to the north, and Happy National Flag of Canada Day! I was actually born in Canada many decades ago. There was a time in my late teens when I considered moving there, and lately it seems that thought enters my head more often than not. It wouldn't have to be permanent, maybe four years or so. My wife won't have any of it, however, says it's too cold for her. Hmm. Enjoy your day, guys! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would love to see another member pick it up, but after a year I was running out of fresh subject matter. I do have a few that will be repeated and a few fresh ones to post. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #10 Posted February 16, 2017 Now we just need a National Missouri Day (sort of an oxymoron, national and state in the same phrase), so maybe that won't work. How about a National T-Mo day? We can make it to where RS members buy all T-Mos a Wheel Horse related item, i.e. tractor, snow blower, hat, shirt, brochure, etc, etc........ As far as I know, I'm the only official T-Mo...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tunahead72 2,346 #12 Posted February 17, 2017 Well, so, in the interest of keeping the Canadian economy sane, can we just stay at your place Don? I don't take up much space, and I can bring a Wheel Horse or two. And you can teach me how to move snow with one. What do you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about a trivia thread ? A Google-free trivia thread based on the honor system . Who knows , it might be fun . If you guys are into it , i'd get it rolling . The person with the correct answer gets to ask the next question .....type thing . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
