By Christopher Evans on May 17, 2005

"We should be proud to cry 'I am Canadian,'" writes Evans. "But before we shout it from the rooftops, let's be secure in the knowledge that the actions we take with our environment are responsible and consistent with our values and the identity we portray to the world around us."
