   Happy Canada Day to our neighbors to the north and to every transplant   
   who celebrates!   
    From your puzzle friends   
      
   Solving: every, to, the, happy, day, Canada   
      
   > Canada Day (French: Fête du Canada,), formerly known as Dominion Day   
   > (French: Fête du Dominion), is the national day of Canada. A federal   
   > statutory holiday, it celebrates the anniversary of Canadian   
   > Confederation which occurred on July 1, 1867, with the passing of   
   > the British North America Act, 1867, when the three separate colonies   
   > of the United Canadas, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick were united   
   > into a single dominion within the British Empire called Canada.   
      
   > the holiday was renamed in 1982, the same year that the Canadian   
   > constitution was patriated by the Canada Act, 1982, which severed   
   > the vestiges of legal dependence on the Parliament of the United   
   > Kingdom.   
      
   ... then the wp article goes into further detail as Canada gained   
   increasing sovereignty over its affairs, albeit still a 'dominion';   
   then, in the wp 'British Empire' article, the history is further dev/d   
   into the last section called 'Legacy' which names the Commonwealth of   
   Nations, which has its own article.   
      
   > The Commonwealth of Nations, often simply referred to as the   
   > Commonwealth,[4] is an international association of 56 member states,   
   > the vast majority of which are former territories of the British   
   > Empire from which it developed.
