| Topic | Canada is changing its anthem to be gender neutral |
| BlueStormDragoN 02/04/18 9:15:50 AM #162: | What a lot of people seem to ignore is that this line being changed is actually bringing it back closer to the original text. The song was first composed in French and performed on June 24th 1880. Several English versions followed and in 1908, Robert Stanley Weir made a version that became the 'standard' In 1914, the line : "True patriot love thou dost in us command." was changed for the one that says: "True patriot love in all thy sons command The song was adopted as Canada's National anthem in 1980. The change now, involves that same line again and it will say: "True patriot love in all of us command The new line will be gender neutral and more inclusive but, if you dislike the idea of changing the song; remember that it will bring it back closer to its original state. There is really nothing to be angry about, nor is there any conspiracies against men to cry over in this story. I swear people who complain about SJW all the time, often come off as a lot whinier than the people they fear so much. Try to adapt to the changing world and start acting like the strong people you think yourselves to be. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
