Everyone --
Apologies for starting this thread here -- it has nothing to do with the Leafs -- but since many of you may not ever read The New York Times I want to make sure you don't miss the feature on the front page of their website. It is a truly beautiful story about how your country has stepped up to embrace Syrian refugees in the wake of the tragic drownings this spring.
To me, it really captures everything that I, as an American, like about Canada and Canadians.

Wonderful photos too.
You know, you guys should be proud to be Canadian. You are leading the way in a compassionate response to a humanitarian crisis, instead of sowing fear and division, as a certain someone who would lead my country is doing.
Well done. I hope you all enjoy your national holiday tomorrow.
Mods -- do what you will with this, I understand if it needs to be moved.
