The End To love one’s country Without belittled others Without creating a national myth Without triumphant national virtues Without promoting an ideology Without the greatness of power Without being exclusive But on the heritage of an inspiration The End I love Canadian Nationalism. It is a love of a country without be little others, without creating their own national myth, without trumpeting their national virtues, without promotion of a superior ideology, without the greatness of national power, but a record of a heritage of an ascending country. The lone pine is a symbol of romantic solitude and the stand against nature for survival. Music – An extract of the national anthem of Canada ‘O Canada’. All rights reserved.
