In Manitoba, the prairie crocus, or anemone patens (Pulsatilla ludoviciana), also known as the pasque-flower, the windflower -- because of its furry petals -- sometimes called the gosling plant, was officially adopted in 1906. Interest had first been aroused by the Manitoba Horticultural Society. A subsequent vote amongst schoolchildren put the crocus in first place, the prairie lily second and the wild rose third.

In Newfoundland and Labrador, the pitcher-plant dipper and the huntsman's cup, was suggested for use on the coinage by Queen Victoria and was made an official emblem in 1954. The caribou is also an accepted emblem of Newfoundland. In Beaumont Hamel (Sarracenia purpurea), also known as the Indian Park in France, a life-size bronze statue of a caribou commemorates the historic attack on Beaumont Hamel, July 1, 1916, when almost the entire Newfoundland and Labrador Regiment was wiped out. A replica in Bowring Park, St. John's, was unveiled in July 1, 1928. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

In Nova Scotia, the trailing arbutus or mayflower (Epigaea repens L) was officially adopted in 1901, when an act of the legislature stated that it 'is hereby declared to be and from time immemorial to have been the emblem of Nova Scotia.' As far back as 1825 it was used as a decorative motif on the front page of the Nova Scotian. During the 19th century it appeared on the buttons of the Nova Scotia militia, and on postage stamps along with the rose, the thistle and the shamrock. The Nova Scotia tartan (the first provincial-territorial tartan in Canada; registered with the Court of the Lord Lyon, King of Arms of Scotland, 1956). Leave a Comment Theme: Other

In Ontario, the white trillium (Trillium grandiflorum), also known as the wake-robin and the white lily, was officially adopted in 1937. It was recommended by a special committee of botanists to the Ontario Horticultural Association, which canvassed the views of other horticultural societies in the province, also of high schools and collegiate institutes. In a British botanical work published in 1760 there is a reference to the trilliums as 'the herb True Love of Canada.' Leave a Comment Theme: Other

My favourite restaurant is Red lobster. I love seafood so if you are a fan of them go to red lobster.
Just the seafood in general. Canadians are really into fast food, but i personally prefer sit down restaurants.
