So near the end of WWII Canada liberated  the Randstad,  (four largest Dutch cities Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht) from German occupation. Which allowed Canada to send food aid to the many of dutch citzens who where suffering from the Hongerwinter (‘Hungerwinter’). The Netherlands were so thankful   for Canada’s help that they send Canada ten thousand tulips every year since the war which started the  Canadian Tulip Festival.

"Football is one of the world’s best means of communication. It is impartial, apolitical and universal. Football unites people around the world every day.

nyx; the greek goddess and personification of the night. born of chaos, she and erebos (darkness) produced aether (light) and hemera (day). she is also the mother of moirae (the three fates), hypnos (sleep), and thanatos (death). she is often depicted riding a chariot, covered in a veil of mist, and, because she was older and more powerful than he, is the only goddess to be feared by zeus himself.
