Okay, so Canada Day is not really Canada's Birthday it's a national day. This day celebrates July 1, 1867, and the enactment of the British North America Act or Constitution Act. This act united two British colonies and a province into a single country we now lovingly refer to as America's Hat.
In celebration of this day let's all sing the Canadian National Anthem:
O Canada, Our home and native land.
True patriot love in all they sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise.
The True North strong and free, from far and wide
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
And give thanks for some of my favorite Canadian things:
Barenaked Ladies
Ryan Reynolds
Trivial Pursuit
Will Johnson
IMAX
Canada Dry Ginger Ale
Michael Buble (thanks for the reminder Shivy)

It's a great list, and with the addition of one Mr. Michael Buble, I think it's complete!
