Happy Canada Day to you too!! Even though I don't live there, I'm still honoring it ^_^

Thank you! Well, make sure to eat some poutine, have some maple syrup and you'll find your inner Canadian XD

i tottaly miss this :P then again i'm not really known for keeping up with the journals on my submissions notifications, i think that's the one thing i don't look much into most of the time xD!
Still i hope you had a good day on that Canadian day.

Why is it called 150? Pretty sure Canada is older then 150 years :o is it because Canada is actually the realy life equivalent of Pallet town gen 1 and you guys have only 150 pokemons there? :P

Hehehe yeah for journals I kind of look at some, but not a whole lot just cause some of them don't really catch my interest or discuss things I could really reply to XD

But believe it or not, Canada is 150 years old XD However, I really wish THAT could have been the greater truth to why 150 since I'd be quitting my job and living my life as a trainer then XD

Ah curiosity about this matter led me to look up and learn a bit more about Canada...it seems the country itself existed way before 1856 as a functioning country, going as far as 1500~1600 untill the european colonies started coming and stabilishing themselves in those lands) however, its actual instituition was only form at that date, no wonder Canada and USA share so many traditions, both countries were praticly the same, then some years later they separated...for instance, the border between both countries was first agreed upon on 1783, which is much AFTER the stabilishment of Thanksgiving...so both countries have the celebration.
Its been 150 since the OFFICIAL foundation of the country as its own independent nation from USA as it was in 1867 that the country formed a province union consisting of News Brunswick, Ontario, Quebec and a couple others and got themselves an actual Prime Minister...hence 150 years of the OFFICIAL Canada, Hence this is the date of its official Confederation.

Learned all this during a 10 minute pause at lunch time, i am a sponge of knowledge~
lmao

i think at your current age you could be well beyond a trainer since they start6 at 10 years old :P Maybe you'd have your own Gym at this point! i wonder what would be your gym type and badge :P

Yeah, we didn't become an official country until 1867 where we got our independence from Britain granted to us. Believe it or not, as a comedian also described it, we got it by simply asking nicely XD Where others had to fight for it, we...simply asked to be our own nation =P But yeah, that's why we call it the 150th birthday for Canada. Which...when you think about it...isn't really that old when you describe a country. It still sounds new...to me at least XD

But man, you can find a LOT in your 10 minute breaks XD but you do absorb info like a sponge =P

Well, anyone technically can be a trainer, just some are late bloomers XD Hmmmmmm, I have thought about that for what kind of Gym I would have and...I'm torn between a couple XD Either a Dark Gym, Fire Gym or Grass Gym, but Dark has the lead since a few of my more fave pokemon are Dark based (Krookodile for starters) XD
