"Canada, my beloved Canada From the northern territories, British Columbia in the west to the Atlantic maritimes,

Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec..... Just the murmur of these provinces fill canadians' hearts With love, pride and respect. Canada, my beloved Canada. Majestic mountains climbing upward toward the sky, plains And prairies that spread beyond the eye. magnificent scenery That extends from sea to sea,.....where the best of nature And wild life grow and still roam free. Canada, my beloved Canada. Soaring eagles, roaring rivers, great lakes and cities nestled along the shore,.....where you can view the changing of the guard right on parliaments front door. so, though I wander far and wide,..... I can never really run and hide..... for I have this yearning buried deep inside. To always return to, Canada, my beloved Canada." Joseph P. Martino
