›› Unique ways to celebrate Canada

Hockey

Day inspired by our national icons

While its exact origins are hotly debated, hockey as we know it today is firmly rooted in Canadian history and culture. Since your neighbourhood rink is likely closed for the season, consider playing a game of street hockey to work up an appetite for your Canada Day barbecue. During this unusual time, be sure to keep the pickup game “within your bubble” and maintain some distance so you keep safe!

There are many ways to celebrate Canada Day and fireworks, community events and backyard barbecues are all commonly enjoyed on July 1. But if you’re looking to do something a little more unique, consider incorporating these national icons into your festivities.

The maple leaf While the red leaf on our flag is that of the sugar maple, there are in fact 10 species of maple that grow across the country.

This Canada Day, why not plant one of these trees in your yard? Alternatively, you could simply slather some pancakes with maple syrup and call it Canadian pride.

Bonus points if you serve them with Canadian bacon.

The beaver While a number of animals serve as Canadian symbols, it’s the beaver that’s most recognized as a national icon. This isn’t surprising given that our country was largely founded on trading beaver pelts. Since you probably won’t see a real beaver on Canada Day, why not indulge in a Beaver Tail pastry instead? This quintessential Canadian treat is a delicious way to celebrate our country.

Happy Canada Day!

THinGS

you probably didn’t know were invented in Canada

Canadian people and their ideas have made a great impact on the world.

These are just six of the many things that were invented right here at home.

Peanut butter

originally invented as a source of protein and calories for people with no teeth, peanut butter was first patented in 1884 by a Montreal pharmacist.

Snowblower

you can thank Montreal’s Arthur Sicard the next time you clear your driveway with a snowblower. He was inspired by agricultural equipment when he invented this back-saving alternative to shovelling.

Instant replay

in 1955, Hockey night in Canada changed forever when a CBC producer used a kinescope to replay parts of an nHl game a few minutes after they occurred.

Insulin

This hormone was discovered in 1922 by Canadians Frederick Banting and Charles H. Best. They found that insulin lowered a diabetic dog’s blood glucose to normal levels. Within a year, they invented a way to purify insulin, and used it to successfully treat a boy suffering from severe diabetes.

Garbage bags

They may not be glamorous, but it’s hard to imagine a time before plastic disposable bags were readily available. They’ve come a long way since their invention in 1950. Garbage bags have become more environmentally friendly over the years, with recyclable and biodegradable versions now widely available.

The Caesar

invented in Calgary in 1969, the Caesar has been a staple of the Canadian brunch scene ever since. This savoury mix of clam juice, tomato juice and vodka can be garnished with a stalk of celery, a pickled bean or a wedge of lime and is served over 350 million times a year.

The next time you enjoy a PB&J, watch a replay of a great hockey play or take your garbage to the curb, know that you have a fellow Canadian to thank for it.

›› Fun facts about the national anthem You may have sung it in grade school and still hear it before hockey games, but what do you really know about “O Canada?” Here are some fun facts about our national anthem.

It was originally written in Quebec “o Canada” was first commissioned in 1880 by the lieutenant Governor of Quebec for Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day. The song’s music was composed by Calixa lavallée and the lyrics were written by poet and judge Sir Adolphe-Basile routhier.

It wasn’t translated until 1908 The english version was originally written by the Honourable robert Stanley Weir. Since then, it’s undergone a few changes, including the addition of a fourth, more religious verse in 1926 and another change to make the anthem gender neutral in 2018.

The English and French versions are nothing alike Aside from the words “o Canada,” the lyrics to the english and French versions of the anthem are completely different. The French lyrics make reference to the Catholic religion and refer to Canada as a land of ancestors. The english version is a simpler affirmation of love and service to the nation.

It wasn’t official until 1980 “o Canada” didn’t officially become the national anthem until 1980. Before then, “God Save the Queen” was sung at important events and it remains the royal anthem of Canada.

THinGS Canadians do best

advertising Feature

Canadians have a global reputation for being friendly and polite. However, Canucks have a lot more going for them than being well-mannered. To celebrate Canada Day, here are five things that this country and its citizens do best.

4. Slang

1. Comedy

What do eugene levy, Mike Myers, Samantha Bee, John Candy, Catherine o’Hara and Jim Carrey have in common? They all hail from the Great White north and are prominent names in the world of comedy.

2. Hockey This sport is an inarguable part of the Canadian identity. professional teams have won more championships than any other country, and national teams regularly top the world rankings.

3. Cottage country Canada has more lakes than any other country in the world. When combined with ocean coastlines, mountain ranges, unique deserts and abundant wilderness, Canada provides more opportunities to get away from it all than just about anywhere else.

in addition to their regional accents, Canadians use terms and idioms that’re all their own. Where else can you say, “i’m going to put on my toque, drive a few clicks down the road and pick up a two-four”?

5. Snack foods

From nanaimo bars and butter tarts to poutine and donairs, Canada is home to some of the best snack foods out there. our chocolate bars are also second to none. in fact, Coffee Crisp, Smarties, Mr. Big, Aero and Caramilk can only be found on Canadian shelves. Additionally, dill pickle and ketchup chips are unique to Canada.

This year on July 1, take a moment to reflect on all the things that make this country and its citizens great. Happy Canada Day! ConTenT SupplieD By neWSpAper ToolBox
