dewlineSo here we are at the latest anniversary of the signing of the Confederation agreements that many of us see, with encouragement from our federal government, as the anniversary of modern Canada's founding.
Some of us, like Luanga Nuwame, see it as cause for celebration.
Others, such as Kerry Benjoe, have just cause to see it as a day for mourning if not rage. Whether they do or not is a choice that's not mine to make.
Still more are apathetic to the whole business of it, seeing it as just another day in their lives.
However you see this day, I hope that it's kind to you.
(Sidebar: I wish we had an avatar for "contemplative" that did not involve smiling. It seems improper in moments like this one.)
