Mexico is a free trade partner of Canada. Despite that, for many Canadians, Mexico is even more foreign, unknown, and uninteresting than many countries in Africa.
I move countries every three or four years. I was born in London, and we lived in Canada. Then we lived in Saudi Arabia until the Gulf War broke out, when we were forced to leave. Then we hop-scotched for a while from Holland back to Canada back to Saudi Arabia. Then there was D-day, so we had to get out again.
Growing up in Canada, most kids from Canada dream of playing in the NHL, and they also hope one day to be on a Stanley Cup team. That was a big goal.

I think Canada, our industry is still somewhat based in America’s industry.
I don’t do as many readings as I used to. There was a time when I was on the road a lot more, at home in Ireland, in Britain, in Canada and the States, a time when I had more stamina and appetite for it.
Some newer writers worry about books set in Canada having a big appeal, but it has never been an issue for me. I haven’t wanted to write in the States because I don’t know the States.

I love Canada. It’s a wonderful political act of faith that exists atop a breathtakingly beautiful land.
Canada, the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand have stood together in the long struggle for freedom for decades. We have a responsibility to the people of Hong Kong to support them as they struggle to maintain the freedom that was guaranteed to them by Beijing in 1984.
For me, it’s all about the Canadian tuxedo, and maybe a bolero. The province I grew up in in Alberta is pretty much the denim capital of Canada. The first premier of Alberta started Grand Western Garment, which Levi’s bought later on.
You grow up skinny in Canada; in working-class Montreal, you’re definitely the underdog.
I don’t feel that I or Canada has to prove anything through big, loud, overt acts.

You know, who would have thought a guy from Canada playing at a club like Bayern Munich and winning the Champions League? I never could have guessed it.
I’m a living testament to the value of immigration. I escaped a civil war, and I came to Canada as a refugee, and they gave my family protection. I did my best to pay that country back, and I think I did that.
I would like to work anywhere, whether it is the U.S., the U.K., Canada, or Europe.

I was an infant when I was living in Canada, but when I was adopted, I was a baby, so I grew up in Maine and Massachusetts, and I returned to Saskatchewan as – in my late teens.
We’re lucky we live in Canada. If we were living in the United States I’m sure it would be different – all the media attention that we would get in the private part of our lives.
I like Canada for a number of reasons, politics and people and all that stuff aside. I was raised there, and I write music best when I’m in situations that I’m surrounded by nature, and when there’s seasons.
I had five years in the business in Canada, and then I came down to the States in February of 2010. I had a good pilot season. I started getting guest star work. I started to get bigger stuff.

I grew up on the edge of a national park in Canada – timberwolves, creeks, snow drifts.
Canada is the only country in the West that hasn’t given in to the rhetoric of fear. The dominant rhetoric is a line of inclusion.
The Yankees won the pennant, we went on to the World Series, 41 years after that in the city of Toronto. The great city of Toronto, and all the provinces in Canada, everybody reached out and they were excited because we won the first World Series ever, across the border.
First, to begin with, Mexico is North American; the one that is using wrong the term is United States. United States is not North America. North America is Mexico, United States, and Canada.
In Japan, skating is like NHL hockey in Canada or baseball in the U.S., so pushing the limit is very enticing. Skating is their lives.
I never really knew what fine cuisine was when I was a little boy in Canada. For me, Italian food was ‘Kraft Dinner’ or pizza. When I moved to New York, that’s when I discovered all the Italian food.

Bryan Adams might not be what I want to put on, but he’s a pop singer with a great voice and great guitar tone. Plus, he’s done more for Canada than Rush have, because he works all the time. I envy him for that.
Let me first clarify that NAFTA is a trilateral agreement. The decision of walking away is not of Mexico or Canada. The decision of walking away is of the U.S.
I was totally unknown in the television and film industry in Canada.
I enjoyed living in Canada, where my husband comes from, because I was treated like any ordinary person. I became a volunteer at my children’s school; I went into the classroom. It was very grounding. I got sick of being famous.
I was lucky to find a way to get a visa as an independent worker, which is hard to do. On top of that, I do live in the States, which means I’m not ‘taking my skills back to Canada.’
I can’t come back home with an agreement that will not be a win-win-win situation for the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

Canada is not really a place where you are encouraged to have large spiritual adventures.
Being able to have the World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the USA is a great honor for us. Being able to speak at the ceremony that announced they were bringing it here was a stepping stone for a young player like me. I’m happy that it’s coming to Canada.
When I graduated from high school, I made the decision to pursue my dance training in London, England. I was so scared at first, not knowing if this little girl from small town Canada could possibly make it with these highly trained London dancers.
