*The following are some older blogs that I posted on Myspace. I am in the process of getting rid of my myspace account but didn't want to lose all my blogs.*
Something I just read bothered me to the point of having to write. What does it mean to be Canadian? Is it the following things?
Canadian
[] You play hockey
[x] You love beer
[x] You say eh
[x] You don't believe war is the answer
[x] You know what poutine is
[x] You speak some french
[x] You love Tim Horton's
[ ] At one point you lived in a cabin
[x] You have gotten high [[cuz I totally am right now!]]
Total = 7
It doesn't matter who the person was that I read this from, what matters is that doing drugs is aparently something someone thought was truly Canadian. In reality, ask anyone of intelligence, it is something that is truly stupid.
We are the mothers and fathers of the future generation of our country. So I ask all of you, is that the kind of world you want your children to grow up in? I know it's not my ideal world, for me or my children in the future. So what do we do about it? For starters, we quick condoning this action and speak out.
For those of you who don't know, condone is an amazing word and speaks directly to our generation. To condone is to disregard or overlook; to give tactic approval of; to remain silent.
So here I am, speaking out. I will no longer be silent to the dangers and stupidity of drugs. I do not approve, and I certainly do not think that the use of drugs should or will characterize the future generation of Canadians, even if it did so stupidly take hold of our own.
