Canada Day 2025: Are you proud to be Canadian? What is your biggest issue living in this country? Vote and share your view of the country
This year, Canada Day is more than just a celebration: chance for citizen to reflect on who we are, our values and what direction we are headed in as a country.
Canada is approaching its 158th birthday in the midst of uncertainty — both at home and abroad. U.S. President Trump's trade war left the nation unsettled with a long-time ally. Threats to the country's sovereignty - a push to make it America's "51st state" - has sparked frustrations. A minority Liberal government with Prime Minister Mark Carney is still dealing with mounting economic challenges across the country. Despite that, a fresh wave of patriotism continues: citizens are 'Buying Canadian', changing their view on relations with American neighbours, and rethinking Canada's place on the global stage.
With this spirit in mind, Yahoo News Canada is launching My Canada, a series focused on influential and everyday citizens across the country sharing their views on what makes them proud, challenged, frustrated Canadian.
But first, we want to hear from you. What are your views of Canada, and its reputation? Are you proud to be a Canadian?
Share your views with this series of questions, and check back on July 1, 2025 for the results.
