Why were they singing O Canada at the All Star game? I thought the Expos were gone. Am I wrong?

The Blue Jays played their first game on April 7, 1977

I guess you just came out of the cave you've been living in?

The BLM folks hate this phrase (”All lives matter”).

As a marketing dweeb, the second I read about their displeasure, I realized they were upset about somebody messing with their "brand." This is ALL manufactured. Every single bit of it.

Absolutely the worst rendition of O, Canada. It was in minor chord. WTH.

Part of the natural alliance between liberals and Islam - the overarching goal is total conversion of everyone.
The liberals mistake is that Muslims have a mandate from their God to kill anyone who disagrees or disobeys, and their list includes many liberal groups like atheists, Jews and homosexuals.

Don’t care much for the unsolicited injection of politics, but not sure what’s wrong with the “All Lives Matter” counterpoint...

Toronto has some of the best fans in baseball

Their games are always filled with close to capacity crowds.

I am serving 25 to life for that very thought crime.

The French lyrics are better than the English lyrics.

O Canada!
Land of our forefathers
your brow is wreathed with a glorious garland of flowers.
Because your arm can wield the sword,
and it is ready to carry the cross.
your history is an epic
Of the most brilliant exploits.
your valour steeped in faith
Will protect our homes and our rights
Will protect our homes and our rights.

I suspect the reference to “The Cross” won’t be there much longer.

Holding up a sign saying “All Lives Matter,”

That's Racist!

According to the local radio here Fox didn’t even show the anthem but it was shown on the MLB International feed which was what was on Canadian Cable TV. So in essence this whole thing never happened as far as the Fox TV audience is concerned.
