During my year of study in Boston, other teachers and students, as well as public citizens would often strike up a conversation when they saw the Canadian Maple leaf emblem.

Happy Canada Day!
I have always promoted my love for Canada. No hanging on the sidelines, no 'sorry,' no 'second best,' . . . no wallflower, I.
From my childhood days, and throughout my working career, I have been proud to display the Canadian flag and wear a flag pin in my lapel. And, that was only the start!

Start 'Giving Back'
The nightly marches protesting tuition hikes at Québec CÉGEPs show no signs of fading away, even after 100+ days. As many as 20,000 marchers have turned out on some nights. 
Background: CÉGEP is an acronym for 'Collège d'enseignement général et professionel,' known officially in English as a "General and Vocational College".
Students in the province of Québec who intend to pursue post-secondary education must attend a college before enrolling in a Quebec university.
