 A bit of history on the founding of Canada -

Founded on Psalm 72.8
" He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
and from the river unto the ends of the earth."  

the Dominion of Canada was formed to unite the provinces into a nation on
July 1st 1867.

Canada's motto is "He shall have dominion from sea to sea"
referring to God from the Psalm 72 scripture,
repeated again in Latin on the Canadian coat of arms, "From sea to sea".

Sir John A. MacDonald, Canada's first Prime Minister,
wrote an explanation of the name to Queen Victoria, stating it ,
" a tribute to the principles they earnestly desired to uphold."

Declaring the continued dominion of Canada from sea to sea   

as Canadians everywhere participate in celebrating this beautiful nation
founded on God's freedom.
