Dear Canada,

I know we haven’t seen each other but once in the last eight years. And that one time was really because of business, so hardly counts. But I wanted you to know that you’re in my thoughts all the time throughout the year, not just on days like today when “Happy Canada Day” is trending on Twitter. I’d come back in a heartbeat if you had a professional opportunity for me.

Happy birthday.

Here’s to fellow Canadians who, for whatever reason, are living elsewhere in the world.
