Canadian federal symbols

Over the past century, the following symbols have been formally adopted by the Government of Canada and are now considered official symbols of our vast country. Therefore, every country has a set of patriotic icons that citizens use to celebrate the uniqueness of their Homeland, and Canada is no exception. Canada’s national emblems run the gamut from historic and dignified to modern and corny, but rare is the Canadian who doesn’t feel at least a little twinge of Pride towards them.

Throw the baby out with the bath water. His bark is worse than his bite. Do not yell “dinner” until your knife is in the loaf. Easier said than done. All Hallows moon, witches soon. You can’t catch skunks with mice. Waste not want not. Through other people’s faults, wise men correct their own. A penny saved is a penny gained. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. All that glitters is not gold. Do not put all your eggs in one basket.
