CC... GOOD GOD WOMAN !!! Cancel your order ! If any Newf ever sees that and you tell him it's a Newfy flag, e'll 'ave yer arse fer dat ! After 'ee 'as da flag !Yup, the popular version of the naming of Canada is Canata, meaning village in the native tongue, and it's on a government "Hertiage" commercial a half dozen times a night. However, I heard another story that the Spaniards named it after southern natives told them not to bother going "up there" because there is "nothing there"... a ca nada (or similar). I kinda like this one better... suits our personality more.
