Canada 150 Song - Mr. Weir

Описание: We are 8 year old students at Queen Mary Elementary School in Vancouver. Led by Greg Weir with a guitar we like to make up new songs that relate to our school life and to sing together as often as possible.
Presented with the Canada 150 theme, our group of grade 3's had some questions: "150? That doesn't sound right. it's gotta be more. What about the First Nations? and the dinosaurs?" Another precocious 8 year old said, "Well...politically, it is 150".

Canada 150 written by Mr. Weir and Mr. Reimer with the students of Wendy Vanderwoerd and Jodi Mackay at Queen Mary Elementary School, Vancouver Canada


Canada is 150 years old

150?
That doesn't sound right.
It's gotta be more.
What about the First Nations ?
What about the dinosaurs ?

Well.....politically.....

Ever since, the dawn of time,
First Nations loved this land.
Happy birthday Canada
Together strong we stand!


(rap)
A nation, connected, with railroad ties
Immigration and great allies
All protected by a Charter of Rights
Still, we’re known to apologize.


O Canada. Hundred and fifty (pardon moi)
Canada. Hundred and fifty (chez toi)
Canada. Hundred and fifty.
Canada O Canada

Canada. Hundred and fifty
Canada. Hundred and fifty

Together we're getting better every year!
