Wow, Andrea, Stephen Harper listens to you!

March 5, 2010 by Brigitte Pellerin 2 Comments

You and, admittedly, a couple dozen million Canadians besides. The government decided not to mess with the national anthem. A couple of people are unhappy, including the senator who reportedly came up with the daffy idea. Here’s what she had to say:

If it’s been pulled, it’s an example of how much violence I think there is against women. This is such a relatively small thing to do.”

And you, Nancy Ruth of Ontario, are an example of why people don’t take feminists seriously.

    They’ve been after us to change the words of the anthem as long as I can remember. The subject will come up again, and again, and again, until the public is wore down enough and gives in, just to get the issue over with. Kind of like the abortion issue. And, of course, once that happens, there will be a “consensus”, and no one will ever be allowed to discuss the issue again.

    Sorry, guys. I’m having a cynical day.

    You could always use God Save the Queen. It’s gender neutral, in a way: When the Queen dies and a king takes over, it becomes God save the King.

    I do not approve of the heir apparant though. He’s a homeopathy fan.
