I’m familiar with the old English custom of giving food and presents to servants the day after Christmas. As with so many Anglo customs, it is quaint and cute and very English.
You’re a good sport for putting up with my go at humor at your holiday’s expense.
Among the many beefs I have with the lefties in this country is their changing the name of our national holiday from 'Dominion Day' to 'Canada Day'. Think of it like if the Democrats changed 'Independence Day' to 'America Day'!
Under the Constitution Act, 1867, the name of THIS country is officially the 'Dominion of Canada'; 'dominion' as opposed to 'commonwealth' or 'kingdom', etc. 'Dominion' was chosen, based upon Psalm 72:8 (He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth. King James Version). Also, Canada's motto is A Mari Usque Ad Mare, Latin for "from sea to sea".
Happy America Independence Day, neighbours!
