Owes life to Canada

Dear Editor:

Oh Canada

(Written on Canada Day 2020)

We arrived on your shore,

with but faith and hope,

The final stop of our lives.

You granted us our freedom,

And work to help us thrive.

You welcomed us into your citizenry,

We swore an oath to you.

To maintain your laws and values,

And remain loyal and true.

Oh Canada glorious and free.

Oh Canada, I owe my cherished life to thee.

Mike Schertzer,
Fergus
