O Canada and the All-star game: The Yanks DID it again ...
7/15/2009 at 9:42 AM
Many around here are too young to remember the US Marine walking into the Blue Jays World Series drive with the Canadian Flag upside down ... but could you imagine if the Star Spangled Banner was played over the PA system at game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals????
The outrageous would be overwhelming ... there would no doubt be US senators calling for an immediate response ... yet, once again the US sports czars have treated Canadians as less than equals ... it's reported today across the net that at the All Star game, Sheryl Crow sang the US National Anthem, then an instrumental version of O Canada was played over the PA System at the stadium.
Why do we put up with this???
