What's the history of the song?
O Canada, originally composed with French lyrics, became the country's national anthem in 1980.
The first English version included the lines "Our home, our native land, True patriot love thou dost in us command". But during World War 1 that phrase was changed to "in all thy sons command" in an effort to stir patriotic feelings.
