WATCH — Kids share their wish for the country on Canada Day

Hear from teens in Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia Happy birthday to Canada! The country turns 158 today. But how do people feel about the Great White North? In recent years, Canada Day has been a little controversial, with some people choosing not to celebrate over the country's troubled history with residential schools and other hurtful parts of the past. But this year, we've seen more Canadian pride than we have in a long time. That might have something to do with U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs and threats to make Canada a 51st state. WATCH — Could Canada become the 51st U.S. state? Some Canadians boycotted American products, others booed American sports teams. We asked kids and teens in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Montreal, Quebec, Toronto, Ontario and Edmonton, Alberta, to make a wish before they blow out the birthday candles. Press play to hear kids make a wish for Canada on Canada Day. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ A nod to Canadian animals Kids News contributor Zachary Morin decided to have a bit of fun in Montreal.
