A fishing boat is docked in a calm harbour, its white hull boldly painted with the words: “I AM CANADIAN. I DESIRE TO BE NOTHING ELSE.” The boat is moored near stacked lobster traps and rustic wooden buildings, with colourful homes and pine trees scattered across a grassy hill in the background. The reflection of the boat and its message shimmers clearly in the still water, evoking a quiet sense of pride and place.
To those who’ve called it home—
and those of us forever changed by a visit—
we know the feeling.
🇨🇦 I AM CANADIAN. I DESIRE TO BE NOTHING ELSE.
A quiet harbour. A steadfast boat. Cape Breton in our hearts.
