    Yes, same to you ! I am sitting back drinking a Grasshopper with a little Gordon Lightfoot on in the background ! <br>
    <br>
    Thank goodness we live in a country where the location of our $200m football stadium is the burning concern in our lives right now ! <br>
    <br>
    Peace.

    From an old old song I remember....

    Its Canada day up Canada way,
    On the first day of July,
    We're shoutin' hurray up Canada way,
    When the maple leaf flies high.

    Anyone else have a favorite Canada song?

    O Canada

    For my favourite Canada song, it's a toss-up between "Proud to be a Canadian" by the Dayglo Abortions, and O Canada.

    True but thats the way it is supposed to be done and the way the goverment wants it Phht to you to . You really need to go to more goverment functions .

    No, it is not required to sing the anthem in French. jim, you're creating a fuss where none need exist. Sing the song any way you like. Heck there is even a Cree version. http://www.canada.com/edmontonjournal/specials/ohcanada.mp3

    No you arn't but some people still get screwed up by it sung that way at public functions. Which is the way you most often hear it .
