Happy Canada Day! 140 !

Happy Canada Day! A few things caught my eye today. First, from the first verse of our national anthem:
"With glowing hearts, we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!"

Little known is that our name, The Dominion of Canada, and our motto, comes from Psalm 72, verse 8:
"He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth."

Further along is this passage:
12 For he will deliver the needy who cry out,
the afflicted who have no one to help.

13 He will take pity on the weak and the needy
and save the needy from death.

14 He will rescue them from oppression and violence,
for precious is their blood in his sight.

Sounds really good, as our Forces continue their missions in Afghanistan, Bosnia, Haiti, Sudan, Sinai Peninsula.

HAPPY CANADA DAY! HAPPY 140th !
