      I’m Canadian, living in Ottawa with plenty of Military and First Responders friends, family and colleagues. In my garage, I have two 6x4 flags. The Maple Leaf & The Stars and Stripes (Old Glory). Why? Randy explained it. Canada and the US are intertwined. Like siblings. We bicker, we fight, we squabble. But, we share a continent. Where rubber meets the road, we have each other’s backs. Longest undefended border in the world. That means something.

    Salute to you from an American patriot! You’re far more of an American patriot than a lot of these ungrateful, soft, sorry and lazy generation that’s right behind me. I highly respect that, not that it means a whole lot. Thank you, sincerely from the deepest part of my heart for the sacrifices you not only made for your country but for the sacrifices that you made for mine. I don’t like the direction either country is currently heading in, thank god that there are still men like you out here showing what humility, honor & respect looks like. God bless 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🫡

      And to both of you brothers, WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO MAKE THEM CHANGE. Voting, protests, work halts, whatever it takes to get the freedoms back to live as free and honorable men. Neither America or Canada fought as hard as we did for independence, to sit back and watch the foundation of who we are as nations and people crumble and fall into the abyss. Make your votes, your dollars, and your votes count, DO NOT BE SILENT, or the lives we know will be lost, and we will only be able to reminisce and say “remember when”….
