本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛这绝对不是我的矫情，或煽情，我的体会很深。
只是一个普通百姓的体会：刚登陆，没工作一天，没交一分钱的税，这样的蓝天白云，这样的冷气空调的房间，这样的电脑上网，这样的公立图书馆，这样的街道道路，可都是这些平凡如他们这些修路工人的加拿大人，酷暑寒冬，一天一年，建设起来的呀。
以后，我在加拿大的几年，差不多每年的七一国庆前后，我都会去多伦多天虹体育馆旁边的，华人铁路工人纪念碑前，寄托对前辈先人的”感恩“之情，有时候是华人团体”集体“组织的游行庆祝，有时候没赶上，安安静静去看看走走，也很享受，那修路工人的塑像，那象征劈山开路的巨大石头，都是我”感恩“之心的寄托物。
后来，我去看《纽约黑帮》（不明白中文为什么要翻译成”黑“帮），听到片尾Ｕ２的歌，The Hands That Built America，有泪流满面的感动：
The Hands That Built America Lyrics
Artist(Band):U2
Oh, my love, it's a long way we've come
From the freckled hills to the steel and glass canyons
From the stony fields to hanging steel from sky
From digging in our pockets for a reason not to say goodbye
These are the hands that built America
America
Last saw your face in a watercolor sky
As sea birds argue, a long goodbye
I took your kiss on the spray of the new land star
You gotta live with your dreams, don't make them so hard
And these are the hands that built America
America
Of all the promises, is this one we could keep
Of all of the dreams, is this one still out of reach
Halle, holy
It's early fall, there's a cloud on the New York skyline
Innocence dragged across a yellow line
These are the hands that built America
These are the hands that built America
America
