Pretty much. I've been treated like garbage here my entire life. In the prairie provinces at least, if you aren't a social butterfly and a huge alcoholic then you're automatically a creep and a drain on society. If your a socially awkward guy like me you'll be ostracized and alienated.
My best friendships have been formed through online gaming, Americans specifically from California seem like really cool people.
Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong Country and I would've been treated better elsewhere.

It's kinda like that Tim Allen quote:

Women now have choices. They can be married, not married, have a job, not have a job, be married with children, unmarried with children. Men have the same choice we've always had: work, or prison

The anthem is no longer sung at sports games, it's only sung when celebrating involuntary chemical castration.

42% of Canada is forest

And also its 10% of the worlds forests are in Canada
Thats hardly a wasteland
Plus lots of farming in the areas that are not forested.
Saskatchewan is like all farming, and Alberta has lots of farms also

Nobody hates Canada. Not even Americans. They're just the extended cousins we rarely think about but sometimes invite to a war now and again.

Why?

The move is set to change the words "in all thy sons command" to "in all of us command" in the anthem, O Canada.

We are sons and daughters, not just sons. It's a tiny change that doesn't impact the flow of the anthem. It's two words to make the anthem inclusive.

Keep in mind this Canadian anthem isn't even 40 years old. It's not some ancient treasured Canadian tradition. My parents grew up with a totally different song and O Canada is just a few years older than I am.

Also I've been to schools in the last few years and some have unofficially adopted this change to include all students. It should really be a non issue.

Didn't know that, not sure why they made it sons. In all of us sounds better anyway!

Actually, there's a lot of irony in folks that think nationalism is stupid yet would insist that changing the words to the anthem is super duper important
