Oh Canada


 
 
Oh Canada…I am Canadian and I stand by my country. I love being Canadian and I love this country. It is huge to say at the very least. We have great lakes and rivers galore. We have mountains, and lowlands, foothills and beaches. We have polar bears, lynx, otters, seals, bird of many variety and we have people. We like all other countries of the world have good people, strong people and we have very bad people.

It is not unbelievable to me that this has occurred. These perverted, twisted and cowardly actions clearly show us what we are up against in our war against terror. Remember it was just a short time ago that our Prime Minister, the honorable Steven Harper and his cabinet declared war on ISIS. Now I hate people killing each other I think it is something that we as a race of humans could live without. But I know that will never be the way as it is the nature of man and not the nurture so much. So as far as I am concerned this militant group has taken the first shot and on our turf.
                                                      Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
This act against an unarmed man guarding the tomb of the Unknown Soldier is nothing but a cowardly attack against the Canadian people. The victim Corporal Nathan Cirillo, a father, and a man just starting his life did not deserve to have it ended by another for doing his duty. We stop for a moment and recognize our Sargent at Arms who ended the rampage quickly. Thank you Kevin Vickers it must be something awful to take a life no matter what that life is and what unhonourable tasks that individual is performing. It is because of men like you and Cpl. Cirillo that this country is the true north strong and free.

We are Canadian and we will stand together against adversity no matter what that maybe. We will come out of the ashes as the survivors, the victors and the victorious. We will strive to overcome our loss and become stronger from it’s grief. We will hold to our nation as one and we as one will fight for what we believe in as a people…freedom.

Oh Canada we stand on guard for thee…
