At our football and soccer games when the
French version of our national anthem, O
~ Canada, is played many people start to boo.
If there is so much objection to the French
version, maybe it should be dropped. Or are
these people ignorant bigots?
This issue the Inquiring Reporter asks:

‘Are you in favour of
the playing of the
French version of the

‘national anthem at
sporting events in B.C.?’

Bev Jolliffe
North Vancouver

I'm not really in favour
of playing it. If our team
is playing one from
Quebec, we should play tt
out of respect. but
otherwise, no.

John H.K. Riley

(formerly of N.Van.)

I think people who boo
the French version are

being rude. There are
better ways to voice an
objection other than
jeering our national
anthem
Joan Leece

I think we os should
continue to play both the
English and French
versions It is) too bad
some people have to

carry on and make fun of
the French version, after
