I know there are still people like what you experienced in Cocopah that stand up and are proud to say this is who we are. We are a country of immigrants and diversity but unlike our Canadian Friends who visit there are a lot of people who want to change who we are instead trying to become part of this country. Yes, it is important to keep your own traditions, religion, history and be proud of it but it is also important to respect and learn about where you choose to live or visit. (Just a mini version of my views on the subject.) Anyway, thank you for the reminder that there is always pockets of hope.Tom and Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13564285175697134395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5640858414424589789.post-70673375757925281922019-01-28T06:43:48.895-08:002019-01-28T06:43:48.895-08:00Great post Lorne, couldn't agree more.

We are Canadians and have never considered imposing OUR beliefs or traditions on our American neighbour.

I have always felt a great deal of pride in the singing of the national anthem. Then we went to Washington DC and saw the actual tattered, battle worn flag that waved over Fort McHenry that fateful night when Francis Scott Key penned his famous poem. Just looking at that flag brought tears to my eyes and now the National Anthem not only fills me with pride but also deep emotions of gratitude and love for all those that fought for our country's freedom and for the freedom to worship and pray in public without fear of persecution.
