Wildman Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Subject: FW: O Canada @ 2010 Our National Anthem - at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics Please read and forward to as many Canadians you can think of – thank you WE ARE PROUD CANADIANS Bruce Allen is on the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Committee and new Canadians (specifically Hindi's/Indian's) want him fired for his recent comments outlined below: I am sorry, but after hearing they want to sing the National Anthem in Hindi at the 2010 Olympics- enough is enough. Nowhere or at no other time in our Nation's history, did they sing it in Italian, Japanese, Polish, Irish (Celtic), German, Portuguese, Greek, or any other language because of immigration. It was written in English, adapted into French, and should be sung word for word the way it was written. The news broadcasts even gave the Hindi version translation - which was not even close to our National Anthem. I am not the least bit sorry if this offends ANYONE, this is MY COUNTRY; My Grand Dad served in the military, other family members also served, as well as my wife & I served a combined total of 56 years between us. We made many sacrifices for our country and do not feel we should feel obligated to allow invited people we've welcomed with open arms to influence & change our society to better resemble the one they chose to leave to come here!!! - IF YOU AGREE ABOUT THIS GREAT COUNTRY, SPEAK UP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE -- please pass this along . I am not against immigration. In fact I believe we need more, my ancestors were immigrants -- just come through like everyone else. Get a sponsor; a place to lay your head; have a job; pay your taxes, live by the Rules AND LEARN THE LANGUAGE as all other immigrants have in the past -- and LONG LIVE CANADA!' It's time we all get behind Bruce Allen, and scrap this Political Correctness His comments were anything but racist, however, there are far too many overly sensitive 'New Canadians' that are attempting to change everything we hold dear. ARE you PART OF THE PROBLEM ??? Think about this: If you don't want to forward this for fear of offending someone, will we still be the Country of Choice and Still be CANADA if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries who have come to live in CANADA because it is the Country of Choice?????? Think about it! IMMIGRANTS, NOT CANADIAN'S, MUST ADAPT. It's Time for CANADIANS to speak up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidooer Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 The funny thing is that only immigrants can really be proud to be Canadian. I am very thankful that I am Canadian. But it took absolutely no effort on my part to become a citizen. Why should I be proud about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidooer Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 One has to accomplish something in order to feel pride. Going to great lengths to become a Canadian citizen as an immigrant, and being accepted into the country, is something to be proud of. Being born into a Canadian family is not something to be proud of. That was pure luck. It was not something you set out to accomplish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
