Some cool factsOn Canada Day, July 1, 1980, the English version of ‘O Canada!’ was proclaimed the National Anthem of Canada, 100 years after it’s debut performance in 1880 for St. Jean-Baptiste Day celebrations. Composed by Calixa Lavallée, French lyrics were written by Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier. Many English versions followed, but the current ‘official’ lyrics are based on a version written in 1908 by Robert Stanley Weir for the Diamond Jubilee of Confederation in 1927. ‘O Canada’ was, by far, the best-known patriotic song in Canada by the time World War I broke out in 1914. Many other songs had all but disappeared, and the once-popular ‘Maple Leaf Forever’ is rarely heard these days.
