g121 No, she changed the words. Words matter. And yes, I know someone posted an actual screenshot. This includes a quote from her.

Chantal Kreviazuk, the Canadian Grammy-award winning singer, changed the lyrics to O Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off game against the United States on Thursday in response to repeated comments about absorbing Canada as a "51st state."

A representative confirmed in an email to CBC News that Kreviazuk intentionally sang "that only us command" instead of "in all of us command" to protest the rhetoric from U.S. President Donald Trump.

Kreviazuk, 50, posted a photo of the adjusted lyrics written on her hand on Instagram.

"In this very peculiar and potentially consequential moment I truly believe that we must stand up, use our voices and try to protect ourselves," wrote Kreviazuk, who is from Winnipeg.

"We should express our outrage in the face of any abuses of power."

Heat84 The English/French mix has been in use for decades. It may not be sung in Ontario, at least in Toronto, but I am very familiar with it.

ZZZZZZZ Binnington played his major junior A hockey with the Owen Sound Attack. He was in goal in 2011 in the year that the Attack won the OHL championship.

ZZZZZZZ this is why she changed the lyrics

We got to you so bad that you changed the words to your national anthem over this petty BS?? LOL! 😄

...and you think you won?

Even if it's just for this one event it still speaks volumes.

Astyanax You weren't listening, were you. You aren't living rent free in our heads. We just make clear our position and when whup your asses. Again. Just to be clear, Canada has a 14-4-1 record over the US in the 20 games where we met since the 1976 Canada Cup.

it was a great game .. whether Canada won or lost the game, Canada is still the winner .. Bigly ..

I wonder if Canada would've won if Matthew Tkachuk wasn't injured. The US was a whole different team when he was Healthy.

Heat84 That's hockey, baseball, the NBA and the NFL. Of such events is gambling such an unpredictable sport.

ZZZZZZZ

Yuck yuck

ZZZZZZZ

The replay is on right now on Sportsnet ONE. 👍

ZZZZZZZ

Even with the great players it's amazing how good a hockey game could be without the referee calling anything one penalty in the game that was amazing.

Congrats to team Canada. 👍️

ZZZZZZZ

Did you see Gretzky come out as the 'honorary" Canadian captain?
The douche gives the thumbs up to the USA bench, doesn't go to the Canadian bench, doesn't wear a Canadian jersey, (political comment removed by moderator)
What a bloody Canadian traitor Gretzky is. 😠

ZZZZZZZ the word “Quisling” comes to mind.

When Mario walked out in Montreal, it was like hockey royalty.
When Gretzky walked out, it was as flat as week old soda pop.

Showing my age but I'd have been pumped to have Paul Henderson come out as the 'honourary' Canadian captain. Henderson was and still is respected by Canadians country wide.

I don't know why the US isn't getting more heat for their team selection and roster choices.

They keep Kreider in the lineup to play 6 minutes. But the leading US goal scorer, Kyle Conner, is left off the roster.

Tage Thompson, with 26 goals didn't make the team. Brock Nelson did.

Cole Caulfield, with 26 goals didn't make the team. Trocheck did.

ZZZZZZZ

Pens aren't making the playoffs this year GM did a terrible job.

8-3 Washington. 🤔
