		Muir's song refers to the maple leaf as an emblem of Canada, which is used in many forms, from badges, various national and provincial flags and coats of arms, to logos and jewellery, to identify Canadians.
		The Alexander Muir Canada is a real Canada, comprised of real Canadians of aboriginal, English, French, and multicultural heritage, proud of its history and monarchical form of government and believing that its history is one of accomplishments and common achievements.
		Fortunately, as Alexander Muir and generations of Canadians have known, the maple leaf is not a weed.

		MUIR; MOIR; MAOR; MORE and MOORE: Though phonetically similar, there is more than one possible origin for these names; (a) from a residence on or near a moor or heath; (b) a descriptive name derived from the Gaelic 'Mor' = Big.
