Collection: Canadian National Anthem Campaigns
Description: Canada has two national anthems. The original French song is sung today just as it was composed in 1884. The English song uses the same melody, but it has different words, originally written in 1908 and subsequently changed a number of times. When the national anthems were officially adopted by Parliament in 1980, the same year that Canada adopted the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the English version of the anthem referred to “all thy sons.” This web site records the campaign, successful in 2018, to change the English national anthem to be inclusive of women, of “all of us.”
