Oh, and they didn't get rid of the French from the anthem because people complained about the French. People complained about the original "non-traditional" arrangement of the anthem, so they hurriedly recorded a new version for use on Saturday that used a traditional arrangement, and was English-only.

It was only a coincidence that they re-recorded the bilingual anthem on the same day that the Herald made a stink about it. It was in their plan all along.
