[edit] typo in anthem lyrics?
In the line "Throught icy fields and frozen bays,", should "throught" be "through"? Or is throught a word with a particular meaning? The word "throught" even occurs at [1]. Graham 06:25, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
- I've been bold and changed "throught" to "through", as that seemed to make the most sense in the context, and nothing has been said here in the last three weeks. Graham 07:40, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Lyrics?
Are we sure the lyrics are correct here? Because Cape Race wasn't part of "our fair dominion" until 1949, and the song was supposedly written in the 1860s. Habsfan|t 20:41, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
Yes, Cape Race was part of Britain's Domain. The song implies the range of the British empire in Canada.PhatD 15:18, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
