District Information - Our National Anthems |
One of the nice things about District 5020 is that it covers two
different countries. For those of you not in the know, it's Canada and
the United States of America.
Canada and the USA have been friends for some 190 years. Last time we
fought where we were actually killing people on purpose was in 1812. Our
war started on a small bridge outside of La Salle Ontario. It wasn't a
big war, few people died here and a few there. The Canadians burned
Buffalo and the USA sacked Toronto. Then everyone kind of got bored and
after awhile we stopped. Since then we have been good friends, however
we made the joint decision to go our separate ways.
As part of our separate ways, we each have our own National Anthem. For
the Canadians, it's O Canada, and for the Americas, it's The Star
Spangled Banner.
This page is dedicated to the education our members from both countries
on our National Anthems and the best way to present them. When the
District Governor visits your club it is proper protocol to sing both
national anthems regardless of what country the District Governor is
from or for that matter where you are from.For our USA members we present
O Canada
For our Canadian members we present
The Star Spangled Banner
