Let those who feelthe heavy brazen hand of fearbear slavery:freedom needs virtue,needs daring.She (for myth may veilthe spirit of truth) lent wingsto Icarus – and though he fell,and his wings drownedbeneath the waves,he fell from great heightsand still died free. Should youdie like a sheep, dishonored,at the hands of a tyrant,your grave will be an abomination.

I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.
