God Created Canada

On the 7th day instead of resting God decided to make the most beautiful country on the planet. He decided to bestow it with abundant wildlife – mountain sheep, grizzly bears, salmon and other unique and amazing creatures. As a backdrop God decided that some of the most majestic mountains, creeks and rivers are required. He then decided that this place should be called Canada and that the people inhabiting this area should be called Canadians and be the envy of all nations on the planet earth. At this point one of his angels asked “Don’t you think you are being a bit generous to these Canadians?” To which God replied “No, you should see the neighbours I am giving them”
