Alpo Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 I believe the French anthem is talking about fighting the Germans. They were doing that long before 1914. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 What?! Their anthem isn’t about puppy dogs and inclusivity? I am appalled! Appalled, I tell you! If it weren’t for the French we would not be the United States of America. We would be subjects of the crown. God bless the French. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original French of O Canada has, or had,both martial and decidedly Christian overtones " O Canada! Land of our ancestors Glorious deeds circle your brow For your arm knows how to wield the sword Your arm knows how to carry the cross; Your history is an epic Of brilliant deeds And your valour steeped in faith 𝄆 Will protect our homes and our rights. 𝄇 But not many talk about using the blood of your enemies to water your crops.
