There's a big national holiday tomorrow, July first.

But you may not have heard of it...

It's Canada Day.

It's a patriotic holiday for our neighbors to the north....their version of July fourth.

Producers Keith Shortall and Sara Nics from Maine Public Radio decided to set out to ask Americans what they know about THE Canadian national holiday.

Apparently not much.
