Britain is really funny. It’s about the king or queen being in danger and needing god to save them. How is this supposed to inspire anyone lmao. Others anthems are singing about the history and achievements of the people, surviving war, fighting off invaders, and so on. And then the Brits are just like “OH MY GOD THE QUEEN IS BEING SIEGED!!!”
Their home and native land my ass
I like the French version cause it’s about how Canada has a cool sword and is surrounded by flowers. Plus I can be an unbearable ass when they’re singing the anthem by singing it in French with the worst possible accent mix of joual, Parisienne, and horrible Anglo.
Saying Canadian history is one of the most brilliant of exploits is literally true but not how they meant it as being a tale of epic grandeur. It’s boring af. Dunno about being double dipped in Valor either. The French version is more boastful for sure.

Makes this site’s only pro-Pearson comments from more than one account.
Canada’s most important nation-building moment was when Louis Riel committed high treason, which ended up incorporating Manitoba and Saskatchewan into the confederation.
Clarification: this is not a pro-Canada comment. This was the start of my personal ancestors being genocided.
Check out this sporting event where the USSR, US, and Canada sing their anthems
It starts off the triumphant Soviet anthem
Then it transitions to some preppy acapella American anthem
Then it ends off with a bunch of old ladies singing the Canadian anthem with the church organ lol
Bonus: look at the comments for a lot of “back when sports weren’t political” ccomments
