Listen to this beautiful song, and explain it to your children what it means to be Canadian. https://soundcloud.com/user-40709119/the-charter-song
Who we are
The Charter that keeps us free
Is there for all of us to see.
Respect, include, and right to choose
We will never lose.
Privacy and dignity,
freedom for what we believe.
The Charter goes far and wide.
It's always on our side.
Chorus:
From Nunavut to Newfoundland,
We love our rights, for which we stand.
In this country near or far
The Charter makes us who we are.
I'm the tomato from Ontario.
I'm the bear from Nunavut you know.
I'm the cod fish from the sea.
I'm the grape from BC.
I'm the beaver from Quebec.
I'm the lobster from New Brunswick.
I'm, the goose from NWT.
Canadian family.
Chorus
From Nunavut to Newfoundland,
We love our rights, for which we stand.
In this country near or far
The Charter makes us who we are.
I'm the bison from Manitoba,
the cow from Alberta,
the berry from Nova Scotia,
The moose from Saskatchewan.
I'm the potato from PEI.
I'm the dog under that Yukon sky.
Noah, Aliya, Thanadel,
You know our story well.
