Happy Canada Day

By admin

Words of wisdom from the late Jack Layton.
Canada is a great country, one of the hopes of the world. We can be a better one – a country of greater equality, justice, and opportunity. We can build a prosperous economy and a society that shares its benefits more fairly. We can look after our seniors. We can offer better futures for our children. We can do our part to save the world’s environment. We can restore our good name in the world. We can do all of these things because we finally have a party system at the national level where there are real choices; where your vote matters; where working for change can actually bring about change. In the months and years to come, New Democrats will put a compelling new alternative to you. My colleagues in our party are an impressive, committed team. Give them a careful hearing; consider the alternatives; and consider that we can be a better, fairer, more equal country by working together. Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done.
Every time I read this I still get teary-eyed. I have never been heavily invested into Canadian politics but I truly believed that Jack Layton was more than just a leader. His last words carry so much weight and inspire many Canadians to believe in change and equality.
Happy Birthday Canada!

Canada Day, Jack Layton, july, toronto

    Celebrated 人日with Mama Lian and big brudder by Celebrated 人日with Mama Lian and big brudder by attending the Malaysian Singapore Brunei- Canadian Association CNY Banquet Dinner. 

Mama and I sat on our stairwell taking selfies waiting for Nelly to pick us up. She’s working on a new smile. 😁

Meanwhile my brudder and I are cracking jokes like we’re kids again, except we’re not anymore… 🫠🫠

Canucks vs Blackhawks and we won 5-2!! Thanks @by_19 and @brandobeware for the catch up. It always feels like we’re coming back from Scallywags after a game and enroute to Bay/St Joseph. Ha! D-I-G…. 😂
