Today is Canada’s birthday and we’re 142. Right now, I’m on a train, somewhere between Toronto and Winnipeg. I’m on a three-week quest to see the western half of this country and visit a myriad of family members.
Through the wonders of technology, I’ll be continuing to post business-related articles throughout my trip. However, I may indulge from time to time, with some personal contributions about my journey. If you are really curious about what I’m up to, I will be posting fairly regularly to Facebook however (internet connections permitting).
Yesterday I heard a radio interview with someone from the Dominion Institute. They conducted a survey and found 41 percent of Canadians couldn’t readily identify faces of Canadian icons. I scored 7 out of 10 on the quiz. How did you do? Take the quiz at www.dominion.ca and share how you did.
If you’re a Canadian, enjoy the celebrations. If you’re not, have a cold one and raise a toast on our behalf.
