The Juno Award-winning R&B singer performed the national anthem before the game in Salt Lake City, Utah and altered one line to recognize the Indigenous peoples who lived on the land before European settlers.
The new lyrics appeared to draw a largely positive reaction on social media where some viewers praised Black's revised lyrics.Rapper Chuck D, a member of U.S. hip-hop group Public Enemy, commended Black's performance:he tweeted.
She should never be allowed to sing the national anthem at a public event again. A disgrace, no respect for Canada at all.
Bull crap not her decision to do
My response? Why didn't I think of that? Will be singing 'on' from now on.
After watching her on global national she’s just a fame junkie very full of herself she doesn’t care about indigenous people she is racist and hates Canada and white people
Too bad she doesn't draw attention to her music lol.
Who is she to make changes to the Canadian anthem? This is bullshit
Canada isn’t native land.
It is not HER decision to make. It’s the national anthem for ALL CANADIANS. If she doesn’t like it she is welcome to stay in the US
Don't mess with the anthem!!!
She's not wrong.
'She's drawing attention because the woke media gets it for her'
Whats next, rent?
Disgusting
she wants to go back to referring to Indigenous people as “natives”?
Woke garbage
Someone trying to get their 5 minutes of fame.
Why is celebrities feel they can do this type of thing?
Meanwhile, the Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau has allowed the Chinese to interfere in Canadian elections, in Canadian democracy. For CTV this is not newsworthy.
Who is she?
Not her change to make. Didn't watch it or hear it but unnecessary I think to change the lyrics you should be humbled to have been chosen to sing.
Canada’s anthem lost meaning when PM Blackface decided to amend it, and this latest butchering is yet another step in the Woke’s march towards our ‘post national state’ status, if we’re not there already.
Should change the anthem to what ever cause is for the week. All the children will be happy
July Black. Cool?
So then why does she make home on someone else's land?
Go woke go broke
nobody owns that anthem - nobody has RIGHT to TELL others what to do either - nothing wrong w. CHANGE - some just KNOW how to pull it off BEAUTIFULLY
I suggest the singer read up on the history and purchase agreement of land that Toronto sits on. Its not native land.
Great don’t call her back
Disheartening to see racism and ignorance on display in the comments to this story.
Sorry to brake it to the leftist, but if you were born in Canada, you are a native to the land. Didn’t think we needed to explain it.
Is this approved by the StoryTimeDragQueens? Just asking for a friend...
Wrong.
Dam I always thought is was on native land 😕
Canada hasn't been Canada since Trudeau. Take our rights and freedoms, change our anthem, silence our voices, rob us blind with scandals... who cares anymore.
Who does she think she is, Weird Al?
Ratioed like hell 25k view 5 retweets and 62 likes The public has spoken This is a disgusting disrespect to all those who died, so people like this can say crap like this, and we gav trash it Veterans fought in wars. This person does not deserve the platform
Not how it goes...period.
Such a loser.
Not her choice to make. Either sing it properly or don't sing it. It isn't virtue signalling improv, it's a national anthem.
Dig through it CTV ..you might find your Pulitzer, then again, you might just find corn.
Our home on conquered land. To the victor go the spoils.
🤮😥🙄💩
Who the fuk does she think she is? CanadaIsBroken
This woke virtue signaling garbage needs to stop.
Yawn. If a Canadian changed the US anthem, it wouldn't be seen as respectful.
Wow look at all the pressed boomers I can’t believe people are getting soo worked up. Personally thought it was pretty clever. Since it was natives land first and a lot of our cities are built on treaty land
You at CTV crack me up. Love how you use the words 'small change' like changing the national anthem to fit your narrative is totally okay.
It was a disgrace.
Can we all randomly change things, Jolly Block would fine with that idea, correct!
Did she happen to also remind everyone there Basketball is a Canadian invention!
Regardless of past...this is a disgraceful perspective to carry... A different race in the same country doesnt warrant a different national anthem
I’m glad she recognizes she is a foreigner, as the only native Canadians are either British, Irish or French.
AND. I was born in Canada. Not On. corusentertainment should not have her on any programming.
Well, those attend the words so she sang it wrong. Way to mess it up.
NBA fire JullyBlack She is a disgrace.
What next? She discussed it with “her” people. I thought we weren’t allowed to talk like that. Racist. Lol.
Lmao all the white people whining cause they’re hurt that Canada isn’t their native land. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
What a disgrace
Clearly it’s NOT your home if you can’t sing the Anthem as it should be…
N
I was born here, this IS my native land.
Why are you tweeting this non-story out again? Who is this old gal anyway? Who gave her the authority to change our national anthem?
“Our home and all our land” is like what it should be, mmkayyyy
Who?
There were people before them.
This is getting more coverage than Trudeau ignoring foreign interference in our elections. How pathetic our msm has become.
So whoever was born here, it’s not their native land? Lol. 🤡
D'oh! Canada, Our Sycophantic land Trained parasitic love in all our sons demand With cold dead hearts and frequent lies The Truth North's never free From far and wide We demand your conformity Government commands, no integrity O Canada, the land of sycophancy [x2]
Send her back to her native land .......
So if she owns property in Canada I'm assuming she gave it back to the natives then, right? Woke bullshit, look at me! look at me!
Ooh ooh look at me! And ctv bites every time.
The elite: 'We need more division.' The media: 'MORE DIVISION!'
Wokism
Here’s a real story CTV china Trudeau’s last election for him.
Stunning and brave.
If she has such a problem with Canada then she should go back to where her ancestors originated from.
So technically, they never sang the Canadian anthem at the game then...
I loved when the national anthem wasn't used as a political platform to express someone's specific views.
Our home and native land Canada was formed by the British The most tolerant nation on earth as are the British Don’t abuse that because your another thankless racist black supremacist waging war on the world the old white men with beards built
It’s a terrible change, wtf?
How many times are you going to run the same weak story as “news”?
Never heard of her before today. Won’t hear about her after today.
Slow news day?
The 'woke mind virus' on full display
You have posted this at least 3 times today. Why are you stoking the flames?
Disgraceful.
Insignificant singer , who won insignificant Canadian award , given based upon skin color says what ?
Funny how national anthems these days can be melded and stretched to suit someone’s agenda just like silly putty.
It's not her place to change our National Anthem in any way. Native Land simply means the land in which we are born. This is my and my children's Native Land too. It never meant Native Land as in Indigenous Land.
Can someone clarify where we have to send our property taxes to now... this woke shits is starting to get confusing with all the new areas it must infect.
Oh so edgy!
I knew this cow would screw it up. What a FAILURE! sad
I would strongly suggest to stop amending our anthem to suit the trending narrative. “Our home and native land” is already an all encompassing sentence that applies to all that have made Canada their home.
Maybe she should be the first to pack her bags.
I guess this isn’t native Metis land since they’re part European and Europeans aren’t native? Crossing the Bering Strait to get here = Native, but having 1000=+yro settlements = NOT native? Born & raised here pre-1867 = Native, post-1867 NOT?
It doesn't matter how small the change is, it's not her right to change any of it! If she's singing at her own concert, she can do whatever pleases her, but she is being paid to sing the Canadian National Anthem at a public venue. Do your job, then protest on your own time.
Self-marketing for a singer hardly anyone knows.
Jully Who Maybe she is just 'a few cards short of a full deck' to remember them.
What is it with these blacks consistently butchering American and Canadian national anthems
Why would someone disrespect a national anthem like that?
If only you’d pump the fact that China influences CANADIAN ELECTIONS stories you might gain a wee bit more respect.
Disgraceful
Boo
This women disgraced our National Anthem. No one has the right 2 do this. Apparently she spoke with some “indigenous friends”, which I guess she thought was all she needed 2 do 2 make her highly divisive and public revision. She should b banned from ever singing our anthem again
Hypocrisy at its finest. She enjoys every aspect of living in a fully industrialized first world country. But white people I'm sure are all bad. I have nothing against indigenous it's just hilarious hypocrisy. She should give everything away if serious.
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
Cunt
Canada's national anthem is patriarchal and racist. The whole thing should be done away with. It is not enough to modify it. It would be properly progressive if we had no anthem at all.
What a clown
🖕
Pravda Jr. loves small changes! Is that your new motto 'Tearing down Canada one brick at a time'. Keep on Propagandaing Pravda Jr.
I kinda love it! It certainly has people talking! Can we remove God from the anthem next, please?
JullyBlack is Anti-Canadian. She is ungrateful to live in the best country in the world. She is racist towards white people. Why do we let her open her mouth again?
She’s right, and it sounds better!
Remember when CTV was complicit in the mRNA gene therapy crimes against humanity? Pepperidge farms remembers
WOKE BS
What a woke joke!
Just another anti white racist and trash media treating it as virtuous.
Anyone remember the tenor who got cancelled for singing the wrong ‘O Canada’ lyrics? Will it happen here? There’s an actual process to changing the lyrics and it is not Black’s place to do so. Aside from her cover of ‘Seven Day Fool’, she’s an unknown looking for her fifteen!
It's true. 🤔
cringe virtue signal garbage
It's not up to a random singer to change the words of the Canadian national anthem to virtue signal. Canadians live ON Canadian land , also known as Crown land. Our rights, freedoms, laws, quality of life is based on the modern developed democratic country we live ON today.
If we can change the lyrics of our National Anthem, what else can we change the wording of? So much for land claims - we can just change the wording! Or how about instead of ‘Right Honourable PM’, we should say ‘Right Offensive PM’.
I wonder if she has ever considered thanking the European settlers for allowing her parents into Canada from Jamaica
'Jully'? What a ponce.
'Our home and once native land. ' See we can all make clever changes.
It isn’t small, it’s contempt for this country.
Running this divisive story AGAIN!
50/50 the Liberals and NDP make this the official wording in the next 6 months.
I hate to see things like this. This piece of snot nobody ever heard of pushes narratives of animosity, division, mistrust, anger, resentment, hate and fear for the purpose of shameless self-promotion. Now we can all talk about her. Sad. Also disgusting. But mostly sad.
Thats so disgusting, disrespectful and degrading. She should never be aloud to sing it again. Anyplace. Period.
She has absolutely no rite whatsoever 😤👎👎👎👎👎
canceljullyblack
I like this version.
Anyone that agrees with Jully Black should immediately give up their homes and property to the Indigenous
Loved it. Make it permanent
Meh ....just done for publicity..might help sell a couple extra albums..she's helping no one but herself
Not just Canada; its US, Australia, thanks to Mandela who let British stay in South Africa which to date hs Black living in Slums while Whites enjoy privileged life And what about Natives being killed and buried undr their houses today in the land of occupied land of Palestine
Shameful! Not here to change
Excuse me, who are you to change the CANADIAN ANTHEM… It’s CANADIAN LAND FOR ALL OF US.
Not o.k
Who gave her the right to do that. Next time get a real patriot to sing the anthem.
Top 1 worst stunts in history
Pathetic virtue signalling.
When this kind of thing happens and it's something a reasonable person should expect you have to wonder if that was the real objective in the first place. Don't like what she did? Don't buy her music. The world has already proven repeatedly that money always talks loudest.
I love how the freedummies minds are exploding over this. 🤣🤣🤣
She's not wrong....
She should be jailed!! This is a national offense!!
June Black can screw off
Never allow her to sing the anthem again.
Wow I felt such pride hearing that ❤️
She can make a small change in which country she resides in. I was born here so this is MY native land and your woke gaslighting won't ever change that.
It's not 'our home on native land' It's 'our home AND native land' and besides 'our home on native land' sounds aboriginal (indigenous).
I’ve seen this on t shirts, nothing new. Can we sue the NBA for allowing this?
Discusting !
Jilly who now? What a Joker.... Had it with these decisive creatures.
Is Jully Black going to return her land and property? If not, she’s just a virtue-signalling woke hypocrite looking for attention. So sick of these classless people. Treaties don’t lie It isn't native land - most of Canada was sold by indigenous tribes to Canada/Britain/France.
My home is on land purchased by the Crown in 1787 from the Mississaugas. The Mississaugas (from near Lake Huron) settled here circa 1695, after they pushed out the Iroquois in a bloody war. The Mississaugas received a further $145 million settlement for their land claim in 2010.
Since no one knows who she is, who cares what she sings.
lyrics existed for hundreds of years to our national anthem... who is she and what gives her the right?
A neo-colonizer like Jully Black stirring the pot is not going to bring about reconciliation, it will only breed resentment. It's very revealing that CTV is taking Jully Black's side, because CTV hates Canadians.
My heritage is Scottish and Norwegian, but I was born in Canada, therefore I am 'Native' to Canada, so her stupid little virtue signaling change to OUR national anthem still includes me, ironic isn't it !
She is just another professional attention whore. She does what she needs to do to keep the attention rolling in. She thrives on it.
Why is it their land? Where is my land? I was born on this planet too. My children were born here, are they indigenous to the land? How long does it take for people to become indigenous to a land?
👆Awww but the truth always hurts…
Pound sand!! That is NOT OUR anthem. Nothing gives you the right to change it!!
If you don’t know the words don’t sing the song! It’s; OurHomeAndNativeLand 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 It’s an official anthem not some rap song you can change at will. 👎👎🤡🤡
We'd be better off if she went back to her native land.
IN ALL THY SONS COMMAND
Black woman should stay in her lane.
It is fine the way things are going we will be singing the Chinese national anthem before we know it.
Disrespectful.
...our home and native land (the only land I know)...true patriot love (when trudope says it's ok)...in all thy sons commands.
So she sang it wrong. If it was intentional they she is woke and not worth listening to.
Well she better fuckn get off the natives land then if that's what she believes.
stunning and brave
Boot her out
Empty gestures don't get our native population clean drinking water.
This is so disgusting.
Indians have NEVER been native to north America. They came from Asia across the Bering strait. We ALL are immigrants who conquered previous people and settled on the land. Just a reminder to offset your statement that Indians are native to Canada.
So brave….🙄
I was born here. Not sure what “native” means in her language.
They already have February and now they want July too? The nerve
Stop the woke mind virus
We conquered it. Its ours. Our ancestors died for it. Grow à spine and stand up to this bs.
Send her to the front. Then we will see what balls she has.
Native land as in indigenous land? Seems a touch racist? Also it’s my home AND native land. I was born here. Words matter, maybe not to some.
Yeah. No. Wesponizing our national anthem for her political reasons is not cool.
Is it trans?
Meh, another minor celebrity looking for attention.
I guess she didn’t know that Canadians don’t use the term native when referring to indigenous people. We’ll have to forgive her racists slur.
WOW look at all the snowflakes losing their minds over one little word .
🖕🏿🖕🏾🖕🏽🖕🏼🖕🏻🖕🏼🖕🏽🖕🏾🖕🏿
Washed up trying to get her name big
Pathetic
Nice
Racist woke and false Part of the black women of woke waging war on the world created by the white man With allies of course A demonstration of the treachery of the upcoming generation who feel safe ripping apart the multicultural world the “white man” shared with them
If she can change the words to suit her opinion then others can change the words to suit their opinions and ideology. And you might not agree with the new words and meanings.
I don’t like it 👎 we can say that in our home and native land, can’t we? Did she consult with the natives on this?
Traitor
Cancel her
Nope. Straight up NO
She made her shitty rendition of the national anthem. She didnt change it. It will never be changed. We do not live on native land. Well atleast 99% of Canada does not.
Stunning and brave.
So sick of this type of PC
In all thy sons command.
Just guessing she was drunk.
All these pressed white folks…..your home is literally on UNCEDED LAND 🙄😂😂😂 guess the truth cuts like a knife and your fragile superiority is called into question 😂😂😂😂😂😂 lovingkindness
Disgraceful for her to think she can personally change words to a NATIONAL ANTHEM!!!
You go girl!
Disgraceful
Why do you keep posting this? The sentiments are the same every time This is pure and simple virtue signaling.
Keep going. The title of the song will eventually be Woke Canada
Disgusting & classless.
It's just a 'small change' to stoke the divisions of an otherwise united population.
Canada needs to stop making meaningless statements on unceded territory, that we never have any intention of ever giving up … but if some fluff variation of the anthem will pacify … so be it
Maybe she made a mistake which is bad enough but to deliberately change it is very offside. Who gave her that right?
Born in Canada!Regardless of race,religion itnis your native land!Just another whackadoo looking for attention!
Come on.. so most European countries should have a lyric stating they are on Roman Land?
Disgraceful
I was born here that makes it my native land not my aboriginal land . I’m not from anywhere else but Canada. I can’t go anywhere else and claim citizenship rights. I can’t be legally deported to my home country cause I already live in it
Remember when Legacy Media in Canada used to be good....
Haha.... 'small change'. Hopefully by doing that we never hear of whoever this is again. Attention seeking, virtue signaling disgraceful little soul... ...
👎
Nope
Canada is like play’doh. “Its whatever you want! Diversity is our strength!” Spoiler Alert: it looks like absolute shit and stands for nothing anymore.
You notice only white people are crying about it 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is not good. If was all native land they would own it all and they do not.
worst version ever
Everyone applauding the platitudes..but when push comes to shove.. they're not going to give up their land.
What a loser! Sing the song as written!
🤮
Doucet did it first.
I like the sentiment but it's a national anthem, we shouldn't be changing as we go like it's a cover song. This a slippery slope 😳
Ban the Anthem 🤷♂️ what is the point nobody with bleached hair believes in God and country anymore.
STOP!!
“Look at me I’m changing the world, look at me look at me”!!!!!
Ya ok she paused while singing she definitely didn’t know what the lyrics were than just went with it, “yes that’s it I changed the lyrics”
When will she be giving up or back any of that native land she possesses?
Hahaha nice
Lyrics that belong to us by the way Quebecers . Wroted by Calixa Lavallée and sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier.
'It's Our Home and Native Land' And 'It's All Our Sons Command' Period
Omg stop with this ridiculousness, clown country Canada🤡
Nobody should be changing the lyrics to the national anthem.
Oh shut up
Who cares.
The FAR LEFT WOKE continues.
Because it's true 🪶🌏👏
How woke of her. JT and Gerry Butts would be so proud.
The spin is so something that fits my ideology BUT what if she changed the lyrics to 'our home was never on Native land' would that also be okay? This should be illegal. You can't just change the lyrics of an anthem to suit your narrative. She should be fined
WOKE GARBAGE
I think it should be permanently changed to this. Much more accurate.
I like it!
It's not open for lyric change....don't like don't sing it! Who the f is she anyway? The next woke spokesperson sent by TrudeauDictatorship
F U C K O F F ! ! !
It's fascinating how people use every opportunity to do something to divide this country even further. She had a great opportunity to introduce herself and represent Canada but chose to promote herself as the queen of disharmony.
I continue to use “in all thy sons command” and will continue to say “our home and native land”
people getting genuinely upset about this is funny lmfao
I would totally support this as an official change to our national anthem, but I disapprove of people doing it on their own when singing it in a public, official capacity.
And us indigenous have been changing it to that each time we’ve heard it. Cool 🙄
Interesting given that she's only a first generation Canadian. I wonder what she thinks of her own parents who CHOSE to come to this land apparently without the permission of those to whom the land actually belongs...? 🤔
I hate it when singers need to put their own spin and drag it on with anthems. Just sing it as you aren’t the main attraction at an event!
And who is she to change our anthem a nothing
Excellent Rendition. I love it. …. because it’s true.
Here sing this: O Canada our home and native land Where our Prime Minister has relations with children that are twelve. With glowing hearts he got caught and fired but did not go to jail.
That is not Canada's national anthem.
Unless Canadians stand up to woke Leftist ideology we'll fall as will the rest of Western Culture... almost like there's a well organized plan at work here🤔
So she sung it wrong. Fail
A lot of us sang it that way back at the 2010 Olympics here in Vancouver 🤷
did anybody correct her?
How about no?
Yeah naw.
🤮
So she sung the lyrics wrong. There is only one Canadian National Anthem. She doesn’t get to decide to change it.
Shameful
The trolls pretending to be upset about this need to go get some vitamin D or something . Love her, love her rendition, and those should be the words ❤️ Butthurt losers need to take off eh
I was born here - i’m a native Canadian
Lol, what a loser!
She phucked it up. It was not intentional.
*on native land ceded in treaty… …save for most of British Columbia, anyway. There’s an actual process to changing the lyrics to the national anthem and it is not her place to do so. Aside from her cover of ‘Seven Day Fool’, she’s a relative unknown looking for her fifteen!
i love it ❤️ and it makes sense as well
Another blatant attack on unpigmented Canadians!
So it’s HER national anthem to change? She is welcome to stay in the US.
No thank you!
Small change but powerful
Fk off.
So wrong all of us or citizens and those that are born here it is our land as no matter where our ancestors are from we are soley from here no matter race or religion
Where’s the lie?
STOP!!
No. I mean hell no!
I still don't sing it the way Trudeau wanted either. Why should the person who is less patriotic than most change the words.
FFS!
Ah. Another borderline Karen, who has to engage in attention seeking behaviour. 🤷♂️
Regardless of positive attention, she disrespected our anthem by changing the words in a public space representing Canada. She should apologize.
It's not a small change, is it her small change or her being unable to read words. it's a typical black person making up their own version of an anthem. Typical.
disgusting... ffs... 🤡
My Canadian properties are bought and paid for...Just saying...
This is getting out of control.
Don't care who she is
No. We don't change the national anthem. Leave the country if you are offended.
She’s a hero for doing something selfish. It’s all about self promotion.
This is getting too much. liberal_party CPC_HQ
on “ceded” land is more of a reality
🤔 if she owns land will she now sign over the deed?
I love it 🇨🇦❤️
Who?
bloody traitor
This is my land, go fccuk yourself woke brigade
Disgraceful
CTV virtue signalling again. I suppose the door is now open for others to change the anthem to satisfy other interests.
Those are the correct lyrics, bravo 👏
Enough of this bs
Give the land back or shut up
🖕🤡🌎
Well actually I was born here, so it’s my native land as well, so it’s our home and native land. End of story.
Only Parliament and the Senate can make a change to the anthem. Singers don’t have Carte Blanche.
Yeah you don't change the lyrics in a National Anthem on the fly like that, get over yourself.
I've sang it like that for twenty years
treason
I like it! 👍💕🎶🇨🇦
The FAR LEFT WOKE in Canaduhhhhhhh continues.
Americans should leave our National Anthem alone.
🤡🤡🤡🤡
Sounds right.
'And' works better than 'on', for the same reason. 'Our home on what used to be native land' has way too many syllables. woof
Let's just have the black national anthem and be done with it.
how brave ----- soooooo brave to act like an idiot to get attention knowing if anyone complains they will be called a racist. congrats on getting your target group's attention you fierce anti-racist you
Who the heck does she think she is?
Why dont we just get rid of it and fly a plain white flag. Like prepare for flag we will be flying next military conflict.
Fact check the federal government created mandates with no scientific data and discriminated and persecuted an identifiable group of people. That is a crime against humanity
Our woke and native land.
🤡
It WASN'T so subtle.
I knew this cow would screw it up. What a FAILURE! sad
