140 Years is a long time, unless you are the nation of Canada. That is the celebration today, for 140 years ago, the area known previously as British North America, became known as the nation of Canada. While it is definitely wetter than most would like, which will cause a... damper on the fireworks around the city this evening, it is none the less an important day, so I raise to you this drink, and wish you all a happy, eventful, and enjoyable Canada Day.
