The ONLY angry one on this thread is you.

   

Nope. Never. But you talking about me instead of the topic proves my point...as if I needed to prove it for the 1,000th time.

   

Wanna know a lefty thing that's pissing me off? Lady moved into the horseshoe I live on, she's a teacher, and NDP, a greenie, etc. See her posts on Facebook all the time.
This is an old fashioned family neighborhood, everyone has at least one dog or cat, kids all over the streets on bikes playing with them, people walking them, etc.

Every single post she makes that's not a lefty cause is whining about dogs shitting on her lawn and how she's gonna raise shit at city hall....
She's pissed at me cuz I told her fences work both ways, build one and it will keep the dogs out. The usual Why should I have to... they're all bad pet owners reply...
BECAUSE it's easier for you to build a fence than to change the habits of 35 other people, you dumb c***
That's butt stubbornness from the other side.

   

As for a genuine opinion on our national anthem:
ADMIT IT
The lyrics are 19th century and musically it's a funeral dirge for the tone-deaf.

   

I always find it amusing that it's always the same type of people that want to change everything that has any ties to our past.

   

Because if we never changed anything with ties to our past, we'd still be living in caves slinging shit for giggles and dragging our women around by the hair.

   

That's what they seem to think, but change isn't always for the better and this change is not needed.

   

We think that way because we're old... if you ask our great-grandkids in 50 years what they think of the change, they'll say, "what change?".

   

I always find it amusing that it's always the same type of people that are deathly afraid of any type of change and think they're going to be the first humans in the history of all mankind to actually stop the world from changing.

Besides it's only been the anthem since 1980, so while I know you're eager to preserve ties to the past's Pierre Trudeau government, you should probably just accept change.

Conservatives were historically opposed to Canada having its own national anthem and flag in the first place so while it's great to see your opinions slowly catch up with the rest of society a few decades after the fact, it would be appreciated if you laggards in the rear could pick up the pace a little.

   

I think we need to change it and use it far less often.

We don't need the anthem before every sporting event.

   

Just a suggestion for a new one.

   

Did not realize the bill had passed 3rd reading and will be law by Wednesday. Now, which MP is brave enough to step up and forward a motion to get God out of the anthem? Time we stopped using His name in vain.

   

Now where did I ever state that any change was bad?

   

The Yanks are up to two anthems at baseball games. Thanks hijackers.

   

That's probably the most exciting part of a baseball game.

That, and the seventh inning stretch, where the few that managed not to fall asleep wake up everyone else that did.
