Ô Canada is the official national anthem of Canada since 1980. However, for many decades before that, it served as the de facto national anthem for French-Canadians. The song was composed in 1880 by Calixa Lavallée and written by Adolphe-Basile Routhier in French.
The French version of the anthem has completely different lyrics from Robert Stanley Weir's 1908 English version. Most notably, the lyrics reference many pillars of French-Canadian nationalism (up to the Quiet Revolution), such as loyalty to the Catholic Church. The anthem thus has many religious connotations, especially in the 4th verse, which is sung right after the 1st verse in this video.
This version of Ô Canada was sung by the "Quatuor Octave Pelletier" in 1918, and was remastered by me.

FRANÇAIS: Ô Canada est l'hymne national officiel du Canada depuis 1980. Cependant, pendant de nombreuses décennies, il a servi d'hymne national de facto pour les Canadiens français. La chanson a été composée en 1880 par Calixa Lavallée et écrite en français par Adolphe-Basile Routhier.
Les paroles de la version française de l'hymne sont complètement différentes de celles de la version anglaise de 1908 de Robert Stanley Weir. Les paroles font notamment référence à plusieurs piliers du nationalisme canadien-français (jusqu'à la Révolution tranquille), comme la loyauté envers l'Église catholique. L'hymne a donc de nombreuses connotations religieuses, particulièrement dans le quatrième couplet, qui est chanté juste après le premier couplet dans cette vidéo.
Cette version rémastérisée de l'Ô Canada a été chantée par le "Quatuor Octave Pelletier" en 1918. - Hudba
Bonne année! Happy New Year, everyone!
This old recording of Ô Canada was recorded in 1918, and cleaned up a bit by me. If you don't speak French, make sure to turn on the CZcams English subtitles, as the French lyrics to Ô Canada are completely different (and better) to the English lyrics. Most notably, the French lyrics are a lot more religious, as they reflect the type of French Canadian clerico-nationalism that was dominant until the 1960s-70s.
Lastly, I wish all my fellow Catholics (and all other churches who celebrate), a blessed Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God (and feast of the Circumcision of Christ)!
À tous mes confrères catholiques, je vous souhaite une bonne solennité de Marie, Mère de Dieu!
Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis.
I love your content ❤

Oui ! Grand dieu, sauve nous .
Je ne suis pas français et canadien, mais Je préférera français canadien hymne à anglais canadien hymne .
C'est rétro et noble.
I am not Canadian, but I can feel the patriotism of this song. Happy new year!
Canada has no patriotism.

(English version)
Ruler supreme, who hearest humble prayer,
Hold our Dominion within thy loving care;
Help us to find, O God, in thee
A lasting, rich reward,
As waiting for the better Day,
We ever stand on guard.
Welcome back mate, happy new year 😊😊🎉🎉

I wonder if there will ever be a full modern version with all the parts. I doubt it since the whole anthem is quite incompatible with current ideologies, but it would be very nice. Also, the CAQ political party are a bunch of fools for removing the Crucifix (That we see at the end of the video) at the Assemblée, especially since the room is full of Anglican symbols.
Happy New Year, Duke! 🎉
Happy New Year Duke!
What surprised me was how royalist these lyrics are with their references to Canadians' loyalty to "le trone" and "le roi". Were French-Canadians big supporters of the British monarchy in 1880, or was their loyalty still to the House of Bourbon which they hoped to see restored in France?
Before the Quiet Revolution, I'd say that most French Canadians were moderate supporters of the monarchy. It was common to find both a picture of the Pope and the King in offices, and other public spaces. Obviously they weren't as passionate as the Anglo-Canadians when it came to the royal family, however the French-Canadians mostly respected the Crown, and saw it as a defender of their religious rights (since the 1774 Quebec Act) and their freedoms.
As for your second question, French-Canada had already been separate from France for more than 100 years at that point, and France had radically changed, so a certain distinctiveness grew between France and the French-Canadians. As a result, French-Canadians, who mostly looked inward, were too distant from the Bourbons at that point in time, and were happy enough with the British Crown.
The first line of the second verse referring to "Sacred Love of the Throne and the Alter" seems to me to be a direct comparison with the first line of the second verse of the Marseillaise which starts with "Sacred Love of the Nation".
Happy New Year.
C'est la première fois que j'entends la version longue, merci et bon vidéo!
Happy New Year!!
Very beautiful song
Yet no one is clamering to change the lyrics of the french version. We English Canadians need to stand up for our culture and tell the elites to go pound sand.
Chut, ils ont pas remarqué !
Bonne Chance pour 2024
Que notre Seigneur aie pitié sur nous, pecheurs!
Vive le Roi Charles!

I request to the owner of this channel to also upload our patriotic songs, such as "Pilipinas Kong Mahal" (My Beloved Philippines), "Handog Ng Pilipino Sa Mundo" (The Filipino's Gift To The World ), "Ako Ay Pilipino" (I Am A Filipino), and others. Thank you! 🇵🇭
"Handog Ng Pilipino Sa Mundo" has an English version, too: "A New And Better Way".
Wait, it's all french culture ?
*Always has been*
One question, is there a version of God Save The King completely in French from Canada? Or just that bilingual
I've never been able to find a recording of it completely in French, only bilingual.
@@DukeofCanada How sad... It would be cool to see French-speaking Canadians singing God Save The King in their language, as a form of loyalty and respect to the crown, So far I've only seen the first verse in French.
@@DukeofCanada I do produce one on my channel, please do give it a try! Thanks! 🌺
Never gonna happend XD

Pour moi le Canada et comme un deuxième territoire français c'est pour cela que le Québec mérite emplement leur indépendance. Vive le canada français vive la France 🇨🇵🇨🇵🇲🇶(y'avais pas le drapeau du Québec)
Le Canada est un territoire autochtone. Si les quebecois - descendants de colons français - veulent un territoire "français", qu'ils retournent en France.
@@Abdou-ce1ls ils sont chez eux par contre toi Abdoul retourne en Afrique on veut pas de vous québécois comme français
Si le Canada est un territoire autochtone, tout comme les États-Unis d'Amérique, les pays d'Amérique centrale et du Sud le sont, que tous les descendants des peuples qui ont colonisé ces territoires, tels l'Angleterre, la France, l'Espagne, le Portugal, la Hollande, tous ces pays colonisateurs qui ont envahi ces vastes contrées de la Renaissance jusqu'au milieu du XIXe siècle et plus tard pour certains, de même que les expatriés du monde entier, qui y ont et continuent d'y affluer à l'heure actuelle, retournent dans leurs pays d'origine.

Great video. Like me😀
It's not the National Anthem of FRENCH CANADA. It's the national anthem of Canada. The CANADIAN national anthem was first written in French and later translated in English.
A bit of research would have improved the quality of your post.
"""O Canada" (French: Ô Canada) is the national anthem of Canada. The song was originally commissioned by Lieutenant Governor of Quebec Théodore Robitaille for the 1880 Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day ceremony; Calixa Lavallée composed the music, after which French-language words were written by the poet and judge Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier."
"The original French lyrics were translated to English in 1906. Multiple English versions ensued, with Robert Stanley Weir's 1908 version (which was not a translation of the French lyrics) gaining the most popularity; the Weir lyrics eventually served as the basis for the official lyrics enacted by Parliament. Weir's English-language lyrics have been revised three times, most recently when An Act to amend the National Anthem Act (gender) was enacted in 2018. The French lyrics remain unaltered." Wikipedia.
O Canada is French canadian hymn. Listen to the lyrics: pour le Christ et le roi. Don't sound to English canadian to me. It was definitely appropriated.
I specified French Canada, instead of just Canada, because this is supposed to be a retro video, and back then O Canada was seen as an hymn for French-Canadians only. Indeed, if you look at the context when it was written along with the French lyrics, you can see that the song was definitely only meant for French-Canadians.
Obviously, it was later translated to English, and the song was later adopted in a more panCanadian sense, but back then it was seen as a French-Canadian centric song, as Anglo-Canadians mostly prefered to sing The Maple Leaf Forever or God Save the King.
@@DukeofCanada It's a beautiful song, especially with the whole lyrics!
Illustrious past. Not so bright a future sadly
One of the most blatant cultural appropriations is the crime against Québec by the federal goverment, which stole the music of O Canada but wrote new lyrics, setting aside the original words. The result is that the National Anthem of Canada is one music and two completely different sets of words. The English version is NOT a translation of the original. Even the name of the country Canada was stolen from the French people who came here hundreds os years before the English and called themselves "Canadians" or in the vernacular "Canayens".
English stole a lot, even their "anthem" God save the King is a plagia... I mean an hommage of Louis XIV 's recovery of his anal fistula. The real canadians are the french canadiens. They were the first to called themselves "Canadiens" (from "Kanata") as a whole, attached to their land as an identity. English destroyed the Acadien and stole canadian identity. "Quebequois" is only the deformation of the word used by the english "Quebekers" meaning "french and catholic". Je me souviens !
Englishman caused a lot of problems in many parts of the world. We know throughout history about their brutal treatment of people they colonised, enslaved and exploited. The British Crown is just a gong show and nothing else. They took over the house of Hanover and created The House of Windsor. Robbed many countries and they don't even treat their own people well. They interfered with political circumstances of many countries and made problems for people to secure their own interests. Nobody cares about their fake king anymore. The Commonwealth countries are slowly breaking away and living without the Crown 'protection'. They never protected them well anyhow. It was all about interests of England but not about other parts of the world.
French have much nicer culture and didn't bother other nations much after they stopped their colonisation and conquering. French have much better music, culture, food, vine. Not like Beatles and Spice Girls. Not much of English music appeals to me at all. There are nice English people but the monarchs and politicians are Freemasons and not good.
I have once heard the French-Canadian anthem with different words than "O Canada". It's much more beautiful and meaningful yet powerful. Music better too.
Quebec should have separated. Canada is bound to fall apart one day just like the rest Commonwealth. Everything created by Freemasons is made to be disassembled one day. They have caused a lot of evil in the world and still are doing it.
You sound like a separatist, if so get bent.
At least the Brits stole something good
@@RoniiNNthey stole it and proceeded to ruin it.
Vive le Quebec libre de la tyrannie d’Ottawa et du canada anglais!
Are french canadian, duke?
On my mother’s side, yes! 🙂
@@DukeofCanada thank you
Pelea se epic anthem of Macedonia🇲🇰
There's no reason why the ethnic French Quebecois people should be subjects of the English monarch.
I am not Canadian, I'd never want to visit Canadian. I can feel the self hate Canadians have for themselves through this horrendous song! Happy new year!
Vive Canada, Vive Roi Charles!
Pauvre colonisé !
À genoux et la gueule bien ouverte, exactement comme les Canadians nous aiment!
Abolish the monarchy
Thank you for making this excellent video which showcases the rich Catholic cultural heritage of our country (one which sadly does not make it into our history textbooks). Happy New Year Duke of Canada, and a happy Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord!
