~ I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.
John Diefenbaker (From the Canadian Bill of Rights, July 1, 1960.)
~ Our hopes are high. Our faith in the people is great. Our courage is strong. And our dreams for this beautiful country will never die.

Agnes Macphail
~ Vive la Canada. This country is not for sale.
Don Sweet
~ I wouldn't let someone take my Canadian citizenship from me for anything.
