Today is Canada Day. For those readers not up to speed on what that means, it is the same as the United States calling the 4th of July, America Day.

It is Canada’s birthday and the whole country gets the day off to celebrate however they want.

Unlike what some people on Twitter think, we do not spend the day listening to Barenaked Ladies, do some curling, and eat maple syrup birthday cake.

We have fireworks, go to the park and BBQ up a feast just like our friends down south do (minus the red, white and blue).

Since it surprised us that there were people out there who did not know what Canada Day was, we figured it was a good time to list a bunch of awesome things about the country Cuzoogle calls home.

Here are 25 awesome things that we love about Canada…eh.

1. Birthplace of Hoops and Steve Nash
