I saw a comment from someone on the socials today referring to Canada Day - which is today - as a "slightly-problematic-holiday". It has bothered me all day. For while I get the point of the comment, and indeed am sympathetic with it, I think the commenter in turn isn't getting the point of Canada Day. And so while I haven't trotted out this post for a while, it's still pretty foundational to me and to what it is I think that we're all up to here in Canada. If you haven't read it, please do.
