O CANADA TO BE SUNG IN THE CLASS-ROOM.

The Provincial Giovernment has brought in a regulation requiring the daily playing of O Canada at all schools in the province. The move follows a dispute earlier this year when the principal at Belleisle Elementary banned the daily singing of the anthem and later left his job over the controversy.
Education Minister Kelly Lamrock says it's important to remind students that to be citizens means to be part of something larger than themselves.
