	'O Canada'
		It is certain that 'O Canada' was performed on the evening of 24 June at a banquet at the skaters' pavilion attended by more than 500 distinguished people, including the Marquis of Lorne, governor general of Canada.
		'O Canada' is a 28-bar song written as a formal march in 4/4 time and marked 'maestoso è risoluto.' The original key of G is particularly suitable for instrumental performances.
		Ten years later, at the initiative of the broadcaster Ross Carlin of Orangeville, Ont, an O Canada Foundation was set up to create, record, and distribute three contemporary musical arrangements of the anthem: one in French, one in English, and a symphonic version by Eric Robertson.

	O Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"O Canada" joined that fray when school children sang it for the 1901 tour of Canada by the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall (later King George V and Queen Mary).
		The National Anthem Act of 1980 added a religious reference to the English lyrics and the phrase "From far and wide, O Canada" to replace one of the somewhat tedious repetitions of the phrase "We stand on guard".
		To help them escape from the Mounties, Kelso begins to sing "O Canada", anachronistically using the lyrics introduced in 1980 and standing by a map including Nunavut, established on April 1, 1999.

		In my defense, any unkind words I may have uttered about our neighbor to the north were inspired by that nation's insane bilingualism, its absurd gun laws, and its public efforts to overcompensate for a sense of inferiority by unceasingly harping on its "free" healthcare.
		My frustration with it is born of seeing someone of whom you are fond squandering his or her talent or running with the wrong crowd.
		Canada has something like a quarter of all the fresh water in the world, and just the thought of fishing in all of it exhausts me. Two summers ago, my son and I literally wore ourselves to a frazzle catching lake trout out of Frontier Fishing Lodge on Great Slave in the Territories.

		Tristan Emmanuel is one of Canada’s most vocal, vibrant and articulate Christians leaders, taking a stand for righteousness in a country that is quickly cracking at its foundation.
		Canada has “hate" speech/crimes laws and regulations and Canadian Christians, along with other people of faith, are being vehemently persecuted for speaking out publicly against the acceptance and promotion of homosexuality within their own country.
		I told him I was amazed at the persecution, as well as the real “intolerance” and bigotry in Canada, toward those who held to their biblical beliefs and convictions.

	Challies Dot Com: O Canada - It's A Fact, Eh?
		Canada may be unique as a nation that has two official national anthems.
		To add to the strangeness, both of Canada's anthems are entitled "O Canada." Many people erroneously spell "O" as "Oh." In reality the "O" is used as a vocative to apostrophize Canada and rather than as an exclamation.
		O Canada was proclaimed to be Canada's official anthem on July 1, 1980 (July 1 being Canada Day).

		Air Canada describes this week's announcement as a decision to "renew and modernize" its fleet.
		The 787 and 777 work perfectly together, allowing Air Canada to respond to seasonal demand with two aircraft models that can fly with the same speed, range, and passenger comfort levels, while offering different seating and cargo capacities to match demand on its routes.
