  8. Good Morning #Canada
    Empire Day was 1st celebrated in May 1898 in Dundas, Ontario, created by Canadian author Clementina Trenholme. It was celebrated at various times of year throughout the British Empire and in 1958 the name was changed to #CommonwealthDay. In 1973, Brian Graves, from the Royal Commonwealth Society of Canada, wrote to PM Pierre Trudeau proposing that Commonwealth Day be observed on the same day throughout the Commonwealth. His proposal was approved at the Third Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, held in Kingston, Jamaica, in 1975. That's why the 2nd Monday in March is so special to Canadians and chock full of awesome activities. (Note: we need a sarcasm font)
    Other than flying the Royal Union Flag at federal government buildings and a statement from the Governor General, I suspect the day will slip by quietly for 40+ million Canadians. I might honour the day by boiling some food at lunch. (I'm a little bit sorry for that)

  19. It's bland, but he's a king and not a screenwriter. Still, it cuts to the heart of the issue and is worth reading given how many people around the world it is addressed to.

    "On this special anniversary, we remember with particular pride and everlasting gratitude the untold sacrifice and selflessness of so many from around our Family of Nations who gave their lives in that dreadful conflict. The Commonwealth’s ability to bring together people from all over the world has stood the test of time and remains as ever-important today."
