We need to move towards a truly just and equitable society by… making sure that every Canadian – whether they’re living in long-term care or they’re working part-time or they’re students or they’re Black or they’re Indigenous – whatever their circumstances, can live in dignity and security.

Everything about Canada makes me proud to be Canadian.

I’m a Canadian citizen, but I do have a green card.

It’s really hard as a Canadian actor to make a footprint in the States, because of the visa stuff.

There’s a number of other things where people can advocate for their positions, from a faith point of view on right to life and a whole range of things, that don’t involve removing the rights of another Canadian.

I had done Shrek as a Canadian and I’m very proud to be Canadian, but I knew I could give more to it.

When I won the belt, it was kind of a precedent… The only Canadian to have ever held it.

As far back as 2008, the Canadian Forces brass was explicit: drones with ‘all-weather precision strike capabilities‘ were a ‘requirement‘ for Canada’s overseas operations.

On every album I’ve put out, I’ve put diverse Canadian songs on it. They’re not provincial album; my albums are national albums. There’ll be a song about Saskatchewan and Vancouver and Nova Scotia on there.

Anytime I meet people who got to make the deliberate choice, whose parents chose Canada, I’m jealous. Because I think being able to choose it, rather than being Canadian by default, is an amazing statement of attachment to Canada.

I see social mobility and equality of opportunity as really successful Canadian values.

Like all Canadians, I was deeply frustrated by the decision of U.S. President Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum. Conservatives are the party of free trade, and numerous Conservative MPs, including our leader Andrew Scheer, have travelled to the United States to help make the case for Canada.

The Canadian economy relies on foreign trade. Nearly three-quarters of Canada’s exports go south.

I’m American by birth, but I consider myself Canadian.

The Canadian spirit is cautious, observant and critical where the American is assertive.

The 325-foot Seagram Tower is the most southerly and closest to the Canadian falls and also affords the best view of the churning upper rapids of the Niagara river.

I remember trying to explain the class system to a Canadian friend when we started at RADA. The funniest thing was when I told her what bonfire night is all about. It’s quite dark when you start breaking it down.

I am the ultimate California girl, which is funny, being that I’m Canadian.

I know it’s a cliche, but trust me on this. I once dated a Canadian. Canada = boring.

My half-suppressed Canadian years, my whole childhood and youth, rose like a corpse from the bottom of the sea to confront me.

I don’t know that endorsement‘s important, so I’m not necessarily here to endorse, but what I will say is, if I was a Canadian resident, I would support my friend and his party, Justin Trudeau.

I’m proud to be Canadian. But I identify as being a British mum.

Right now, there are a limited number of customers for Canadian oil. Due to simple geography – and without the pipeline – it’s really only cost effective for Canadian oil producers to sell their oil to North American customers, mostly American Midwesterners.

All I can say is I’m proud to be Canadian.

Remotely operated aircraft have been on the Canadian Forces’ wish list since the 1990s. Trials of a variety of drone prototypes began at the Canadian Forces Experimentation Centre in 2002.

I think it’s the Canadian spirit that encourages people to dream a little bit.

I want to work with my friends because Canadian genre publishing is a really small pool.
