I think I know the words to "O Canada" at least as well as I do the "SSB, and I know it is a hell of a lot easier for most humans to sing.
Other than changing "in all thy sons command . . ." to "in all of us command . . ." have there been other changes?

Bad Canadian hangs head in shame and admits to only knowing O Canada in English :bag: :bag:

Canadians ARE nice except when they’re geese or you get in the way of their Timmies!

Here’s another funny video of a porch pirate in Canada.

I'm confident I'm the only one in Fogworld who mentally edits the first line to:
O Canada, wie grün sind deine Blätter!

Yeah, thought so.
