The people to apologize for that are BLM...not anyone else. This group is apologizing for one of their members going rogue and twisting the national anthem.

It doesn't contradict any of my posts. My personal feelings regarding Black Lives Matters and All Lives Matter have nothing to do with this. I object to my country's National Anthem being twisted to serve up ANY political agenda.
You have to remember that Canada doesn't have the same first amendment rights as America. It's not fucking racist. Saying "All lives Matter" doesn't make you a racist. But there's a time and a place to say it. As others have said that's not the place to do it. Hold a political event and do it there.
I'm not really sure why this is becoming a canadian thing? Blacks in canada don't and never have faced the same issues as african americans. Maybe they just watch american politics too much?
Kinda wish people acted like all lives mattered instead of just saying it, and then demanding the same standard they dont hold themselves to of BLM.

Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
My favorite part about this whole thing would be Canadians frothing at the mouth that Americans would dare alter the Canadian anthem to make a political point, then quietly backing down and offering a meek "well, that's bad too" when it's revealed that the Tenors are actually Nucks.
