October 10 (中華民國國慶日) is Taiwan's birthday. And for 2008, Taiwan is now 97 years old. Today celebrates the start of the Wuchang Uprising of October 10, 1911, which led to the collapse of China's Qing Dynasty and the establishment of the Republic of China on January 1, 1912

When we were in Toronto last weekend, we happened to walk into the Taiwan Birthday Celebration at Bay & Dundas, pictures to be posted soon
Let's just say, I was so proud and emotional to see Taiwan's flag
