The Journey to Gender Neutral

So 'O Canada' is being torn apart by those who feel it is a sexist symbol. A song that men and women throughout this country sang and cried for just last week. I guess it would be a fitting end for a ditty that was just beginning to catch on.

"In all thy Sons Command" is apparently putting the apron on all our sisters of confederation. As you can see the line is clearly malicious at heart and honestly, what sort of government would allow this perversion of language into a lovable tune.

This is our anthem people. This is not some building on the other side of the country. This is the closest tie of culture Whitehorse has with Quebec City. People fought and died for our anthem, and we will let it fall to a few worked up malcontents.

This is something Canadians don't want to hear but our neighbors to the south would be in full scale revolution if congress attempted to destroy the Star-Spangled Banner. Don't destroy our history, even if you think we have none.

Canada has a few supporters who remember that we have our own past. Lets not let Rosie the Riveter box in that history.
