Happy Canada Day!

We're far from home, with fireworks displays and Canada Day BBQs. But we are will toast Canada's 140th birthday tonight.

People here in West Africa are big fans of Canada - they see us as playing a really positive role in the region. Especially Mali - where the Governer General recently visited to a hero's welcome - but here too.

We're so lucky to come from a country that's wealthy, peaceful, equitable... despite the challenging climate.

Have fun today!
