In hono(u)r of Canada Day, we've added a slew (26, to be precise!) of new, Canadian-themed last names to the Second Life list -- so that all the new arrivals today might have a touch of mapley-goodness. Enjoy!

(En l'honneur du jour du Canada, nous avons ajouté de nouveaux.....um.....noms Canadiens....ah...à la liste? French wasn't my best subject.)

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy 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.

Here's a few I found that you missed:

Bachman
Gould
Kamloops
McLuhan
Ogopogo
Overdrive
Turner

Plus, there seem to be a few french-inspired names as well (Claveau, Malaprop).

BTW, happy moving day to all the Quebeckers out there! :)

Hey you!
You say you wanna change the world.
It's alright with me
there's no regret.
It's my turn
the ciricle game has brought me here
And I won't let down 'til every sun has set.

Here's to the Athabasca Glacier on the BC/Alberta border. Center of the world.

Happy Canada Day to our better half to the North.

Frostie's guide to Canneduckada day:

Wake up
Brush your teeth with Bacon fat,

Replay a horribley old game and beat it in less then 10 hours,

Punch annoying neighbour in the face and shout "HAPPY KLUNDERBUCK"

Have your mother Dye your hair bleach blonde then complain 27 hours later on how your never going to get your braincells back again,

Go to a busy bus station and stand in a line of people and pick up your boom box and put it on max volume and play "Stand by me"

Get hammered before noon,

Renember it was all in your head,

Leave kids with your mother,

Go out drinking,

Steal spleens,

Log on SL and then log off when you find out everyone's flown away from you for canada day,

Get sober, go out for ice cream and continue to play "stand by me" on your boom box while shouting for a rocky road,

Contimplate giveing up your blood for the bacon foundation,

Put on a bald wig, get 2 toddlers, a two angsty teens, One blonde female, nother, bleach blonde and male, and go see vin deasle's the pacifyer,

Break the 11 PM cerfew, (Even if your a parrent of 7 kids)

Go watch fireworks, Eat iceycream

And finaly, Get up fall down and then lets go drinkin once again, Never forget your 1.9 ltr slushie mug,


HAPPY KLUNDERBUCK! :D

The Arrogant Worms have this to say.


When I look around me,
I can’t believe what I see
It seems as if this country
Has lost it’s will to live
The economy is lousy,
We barely have an army
But we can still stand proudly
’cause canada’s really big

We’re the second largest country
On this planet earth
And if russia
Keeps on shrinking
Then soon we’ll be first
(as long as we keep quebec)

The usa has tanks
And switzerland has banks
They can keep them, thanks
They just don’t amount
’cause when you get down to it
You find out what the truth is
It isn’t what you do with it
It’s the size that counts!

Most people
Will tell you
That france is pretty large
But you can put
Fourteen frances
Into this land of ours
(it’d take a lotta work, it’s take a whole lotta work)

We’re larger than malaysia
Almost as big as asia
We’re bigger than australia
And it’s a continent
So big we seldom bother
To go see one another
But we often go to other
Countries for vacation

Our mountains
Are very pointy
Our prairies are not
The rest is
Kinda bumpy
But, man, do we have a lot
(we gotta lot of land, we gotta whole lot of land)

So stand up and be proud
And sing out very loud
We stand out from the crowd ’cause
Canada’s really big!
