Canada is the best country in the world and being Canadian is the greatest
00:00:05.040
privilege on earth. Whether you're a new Canadian or a ninth-generation Canadian
00:00:09.320
like myself, and regardless of your political persuasion or your partisan
00:00:13.600
affiliation, we're all united by our patriot love, our love of the country,
00:00:18.320
from coast to coast to coast. Well, patriotism around the world is
00:00:23.040
increasingly being met by skepticism. Luckily, fortunately, Canada is bucking
00:00:27.920
this trend. There are just so many reasons to be proud and patriotic. So many reasons
00:00:33.360
to love our great country, Canada. We are the world's model for sound
00:00:38.000
immigration and integration policies. We're an energy-producing superpower and we
00:00:43.440
have an incredibly proud history. Canada was one of the first countries in the
00:00:46.880
world to abolish slavery and we fought for others to do the same. We remain united.
00:00:52.480
We don't allow divisive identity politics to pit individual Canadians against one
00:00:57.440
another. We're proud yet modest about our history and about our great
00:01:01.440
accomplishments. So let's raise a glass to the greatest
00:01:05.120
country in the world. Happy Dominion Day. Happy Canada Day.
