Ah...memories... 1961ish: My 6th grade brother and his 9th grade brother [guess who?] performed a concert before Kramer Jr High School in Washington, DC. highlighting Maple Leaf Forever on violin and piano respectively. Our second offering was Mozart G Minor...odd to say the least. Both of us sons of our USAF command pilot father. Rest assured that many of us aliens to the South remain virulent Canadophiles(??). 🇨🇦🇨🇦💕🇺🇸🇺🇸💕😎
It was never the national anthem before O canada , it was a national patriotic song , sung in the Boer war and WW1. God save the King or Queen was the national anthem. However, in my view, The maple Leaf forever is better than the current chopped and changed pc O Canada
Our true anthem in my opinion
I never understood why they changed Canada’s National Anthem to “O Canada”. They should have kept this one, instead.

When being Canadian was something to brag about.

So sad what’s happening to Canada now as due process is ignored. Truly a once great country has perished
Canada will regain its glory one day!
Canada is now just stereotypes and myths :(
God, Canada was once a real country.
1:12 Nice that the war of 1812 get's mentioned.
Nice alternative version of this song, love from IND!
These are the original lyrics!
Thistle = McMillan, Shamrock = Mulroney, Rose = Mills. No other song best represents Canada than this one.
This anthem is true to Canadian history
a great rendition!
First time hearing the old anthem, I like it! 🇨🇦 Is this where the inspiration of the maple leaf on our flag came from?
The abundance of maple trees in canada inspired both this song and the flag
@@xXShmendanXx Indeed, it;s even engraved at Vimy Ridge in the trenches.
1:12
Need a new version of this for God save our King.
I prefer this flag and the anthem. Do you think Trudeau might bring them back?
No that dirty commie will not.
a terrible mistake that they replaced this
