Says who? The people I know who go to public school (granted, it's only a few) still refer to it as Christmas.

They do have a "Winter Festival" instead of a Christmas Pageant, and they don't sing "Away in a Manger", I'll give you that. How either of those changes can have a negative impact on a single Canadian is beyond me.

I think this is pretty silly too, but really, who cares? If you want your kids to sing the anthem everyday, sing it at home. Mission:Accomplished.

It would be interesting to hear the circumstances behind this.
