Four Thousand Miles of Undefended Border

Most Canadians are influenced greatly By our Big Brother to the south Our cultures are very much the same We have a common life style Idolize the same pop icons We dress the same, we look the same Their dreams are our dreams Our dreams are their dreams Four thousand miles of undefended border The longest in the whole wide world That, my friends, is something to be proud of In this age of constant flare-ups That seems to happen almost daily around the world May this Canada/U.S. Friendship Forever be alive as an example to the rest of the world How civilized people can and do Exist side by side in perfect harmony I am proud to be part of this unique And enduring friendship Long live Canada, long live the U.S.A.

Thanks so much, Jack, for this lovely tribute to both our homelands. Yes, it should be serving as an example to the whole world. There is no excuse for one country invading another!
