Why do the Canadians have a memorial day?
Lots of people think that was the long weekend holiday rthey celebrated last week. WRONG, that was Victoria Day (in honor of Queen Victoria):

Their memorial day is called Remberence Day and is always celebrated on Nov. 11:

Nice, Dennis.....Thanks...... ..
Don\'t mess with the old dog...... Age and skill will always overcome youth and treachery! Brilliance only comes with age and
experience..... .... .... 
Are you getting the most out of life OR is life getting the most out of you ??
Twenty years from now you\'ll be more disappointed by the things you didn\'t do then the things you did.
