5 Cool things about Canada

Well in honour of Canada Day, I am taking a break from working on my latest Mental Health blog, so I can share with a few cool things that only my Canada has!

Thrills

We have a gum available only here called Thrills. Sadly to tell all you non Canadians, you will have to travel here to experience the unforgettable taste of this purple gum. It comes in small little rectangle shapes and tastes exactly like dish soap! Yep, I kid you not, DISH SOAP!! lol

Tim Horton’s coffee.

Tim Horton’s coffee. Yes, you can get coffee anywhere in the world, but Tim Horton’s coffee is only available here! Sad to say that even though I am not a huge coffee drinker, when I am away from Canada for more than a week or so I start to miss it!

June 5 each year, Tim Horton’s raises money to help send kids to camp!
Beavertails.

Beavertails. No, I don’t mean the actual tail of our national animal! A Beavertail is a real Canadian favorite! It is a delicious deep-fried pastry that is topped with your choice of yummy toppings, such as apples, strawberries, or chocolate, to name just a few options!

Breathtaking scenery from Coast to Coast! The pictures are lovely but don’t give the real beauty for sure!

A Bloody Caesar.

A Bloody Caesar. Not the salad but the vodka and CLAMATO juice drink. If you are from the United States, you may know a Bloody Mary. Well, let me tell you, nothing compares to the authentic spicy and unbeatable taste of our Caesars! It is sad when some people try to pull a fast one and serve you a Bloody Mary when you ask for a Bloody Caesar! We Canadians like our spice, and the only way, in my opinion anyways to get that, is by using Clamato juice NOT tomato juice! 🙂

These are just a few of the unique to Canada things that I love about this great country! Please drop a comment about something totally Canadian that you love OR something unique from YOUR country that we Canadians may not know! 🙂

Until next time my friends, be kind to yourself and look out for others! xo
