the Canadian lyrics weren't the real ones.  Sigh.)


What are the Canadian lyrics?

Let's see - "From Manitoba...", that scans beautifully.  But now I'm stuck.


I am intrigued by this as well.  Please post them.

I found these on a federal government site in a section of alternate lyrics. It did not have the original last verse anywhere on the page:


This land is your land,
This land is my land,
From Bonavista
To Vancouver Island,
From the Artic Circle,
To the Great Lake waters,
This land was made for you and me.

From Manitoba... to French Canuck land?
From the sticky tar sands
To the cold Newfoundland
This land was made for you and me (eh!)
