Happy Thanksgiving, Canada! 🍁🍂 I'm thankful for all those who have risked their lives to defend our country. For example, Major-General Isaac Brock died #OTD, October 13, 1812, while defending Canada from an American invasion in the Battle of Queenston Heights.

This cow is doing a great job of raising her heifer calf. I’m really impressed with the frame and build on all of our calves this fall.

Laura Secord is an iconic figure in Canadian history. During the war of 1812, she walked 32 km to warn our forces about an enemy attack. A true Canadian heroine! Who is a Canadian that inspires you? #WomensHistoryMonth 🇨🇦 📸 Canada Post / Library and Archives Canada
