It was unique to have O Canada sung in an indigenous language. Respectful.

Actually it was bad. We all wanted sing the anthem bud couldn't understand a word. Remember riding home on the C train thinking WFF?

Thanks for uploading this clip. I've been searching for this verison of the anthem for a long time!

One doesn't have to be Canadian to be moved by this most outstanding rendition of a national anthem.  The expressions on the faces of the singers, the fast moving beat and tri-lingual arrangement. I hope that they;ll use this version again in VANCOUVER. Happy Canada Day from a proud Texan.

This was such an incredible moment. I have never heard our anthem sung so beautifully and I too have waiting many years to hear this again. I remember watching the opening ceremonies and when I heard this rendition, I was moved to tears. Absolutely amazing!!! Thank you so much for posting this.

Rockies77,

This for me was the best moment of the ceremony, the national anthem of Canada sung with in First Nations language. I have waited 21 years to hear this again. Awesome! Thanks thisisabadname.
