The little known History of how Canada was named.<BR><BR>All of the letters of the alphabet were written on paper and placed into a toque (hat).<BR>The final name of the country was to be determined by the letters drawn.<BR>The tension continued to build as the new Prime Minister reached for a letter.<BR><BR>He read the first letter..."C -eh!"<BR>The next letter..."N - eh!"<BR>The next letter..."D - eh!"<BR><BR>And this is how they named C - A - N - A - D - A... EH!
