Tartan Day in Canada - Bill C-402

[The Supreme Canuck]

BTW,
you have spelled CANUcK incorrectly.
there is no "C" in it.
it's CANUK.

Crates of supplies for the Canadian Troops fighting in WWI were marked
CAN/UK meaning Canada/United Kingdom.
soon the Canadians became referred to as CANUKS.
it stuck and has been there ever since.

Not so. The origin of the word Canuck is unclear, but it was in use at least as early as 1869 as the name of "Johnny Canuck," a character in the political cartoon of the same name.

I totally agree. Lots of people just look at it as another day off. I use the day to attend the ceremony at the Cenotaph, and it's usually a pretty quiet and thoughtful day for me.

I'm glad you do. Those other fellows you describe just anger me.
