In a few hours I’m headed to the grounds of the Alberta Legislature for a Unity Rally and I find myself in a reflective mood.
I feel so fortunate to have been born in Canada: to live in a country where the collective good is valued, where healthcare is universal, where I feel safe, where all children can get an education, where multiculturalism and differences are embraced, where people can love who they love. I don’t take this for granted. Many countries around the world do not have the same freedoms and opportunities.
No country is perfect. But Canada is pretty amazing.
