Canada Day is my favorite holiday other than Christmas. Why? Because of what it represents. Canada is the greatest country on the face of the earth, and you know what? Maybe that's because it was founded on Christian principles. Regardless of that, this is a fantastic country in which you and I have the right to agree to disagree on anything at any time. That doesn't make you right though. :P
It may not be perfect but I can't really think of a place I'd rather live in the world right now.
Keep the anthem. If you keep stripping away Canada's identity for the sake of political correctness, pretty soon they'll be no identity left except some sort of generic crap.

Where were your arguments in 1982 when it was changed in the first place?
Wouldn't the desire to restore something like this anthem to its ORIGINAL form actually be supported by your argument?
And wouldn't someone who argues against restoring a national anthem to a less divisive version based solely on 'homos need to get a life' be the one who needs a life?
