In 2010, I was sitting in a bar in Seattle, watching Canada win the Gold Medal in Vancouver. While there was certainly a bit of somberness in the place at the loss of our American team, I witnessed and participated in something very special. When it came to the singing of the national anthem of Canada - O Canada, every single person in the place stood and sang with as much pride and love for our neighbors, friends, allies and kindred spirits of the people of the North. On that night, there was not a dry eye in that place, for in that moment, the right thing had happened at the right time for the right people....and we were proud to sing in praise of your mighty achievement. God Bless Canada and always know that in good times and bad, we will stand on guard for and with thee.

If you didn't like last Admin. you won't like this, but I watched President Obama's last speech as President (farewell address) in a restaurant in Vancouver that had a TV (White Spot). Patrons watched entire thing, and at end, everyone in restaurant stood up, clapped, and cheered. THIS is the way we are used to being neighbors, not being attacked as "dangerous" or whatever other claptrap someone is spewing.

Oxygen I gotta say its a close call. I think the only "problem" w/ your national anthem is that it has only had that status for about 30 years? Correct me if I am wrong, but the Maple Leaf Flag and the "Oh, Canada" anthem came about w/ the early 80s constitution? Until then, it was the UK Flag and the UK Anthem?

Adam Saxe before the 1980s we used 2 anthems the maple leaf forever and the British one God save the queen and since our independence in 1867 we always had our own flag we switched to our current one in I believe the 1950s or 1960s not 100%

I was born in Detroit, across the river from Windsor, Ontario. Canada has always been more than a neighboring country. My family crossed the border many times as I was growing up. It wasn't until I was in first grade that my teacher told me that Canada was another country.... I was heartbroken. I watched the CBC on Channel 9 and learned their national anthem, "O Canada", from the impressive morning sign-in. My family history shows we have a Canadian lineage. So some Canadian blood runs through my veins. The Maple Leaf Forever.

Everyone has a chance. As the 2006 Olympics and 2013 World Juniors proved, Canada is not invincible by any means. Every country is getting better and it's never going to be an easy medal for any team to win. The strength of Canada is that we know we are good but we don't usually get overconfident or cocky and we treat every team as if they are equals. As Latvia proved, all you gotta do is have one good night and you can do anything.

Beautiful anthem, wonderful sentiment, but, sigh, you couldn't ask for a more apt poster child moment for Greek tragedy personified. Canada Rex -- so heroic and trying to do so much good in the world, yet carrying its own seeds of destruction (though through no fault of anyone but perhaps circumstance). I'll bet a fair amount of Anglo-Canadians who end up reading this to this point will still either be oblivious to what I'm talking about (which is part of the problem/tragedy) or take great offense with a "why do you always have to go there?" comment (which is also part of the problem/tragedy). The great irony is that at almost every moment when you THINK national pride and unity should be at its highest, the ugly, tragic flaw seems more often than not to rear its scaly (or is that maple leafy?), little head, putting a damper on the party. They ought to have just one official version of the anthem with one set of lyrics, part in French, part in English and have everyone just learn how how to sing the one version. Since the anthem was written by a French Canadian and the original lyrics were in French, it should just start with French and end in English.
