Should we de-officialize the national anthem?

[Machjo]

Your thoughts?

I don't care. IMO, it's still a non-issue and still not worth wasting taxpayers' money on.

De-officialize?

De-officialize?

Yes, meaning that the government would not longer have any official anthem. Of course Oh Canada might stick around as the unofficial de facto anthem just like God Save the Queen in the UK or Du Gamla Du Fria in Sweden. But it would live or die by the support of the people and not government decree.

OK...I get it.
