This Land Is Our Land
[Chorus: ]
This land is your land, this land is my land
From Vancouver Island to Newfoundland
From Niagara Falls to Bay of Fundy
Canada was made for you and me
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me Aurora Borealis
I saw below me The Cabot Trail
Canada was made for you and me
[Chorus]
I've traversed the highway and the byway...my way
From desert to rainforest to high arctic
And all around me people were singing
Canada was made for you and me
[Chorus]
Jesus comes shining as I was strolling
The wheat fields waving Badlands forming
Peaceful demonstrating we were seeing
Canada was made for you and me
[Chorus]
As I was walking I saw Trump The Grump
Holding a sign that said: 51st State
But on the other side: Canada Is Not For Sale
Canada was made for you and me
[Chorus]
In downtown corridors - steeped in religious tradition
Near welfare offices - I see lost and lonely folks
And some are moaning and some are belying
If this land's still made for you and me
[Chorus 2x]

Outstanding rewrite of a classic! . Trump is a bully and like most bullies can only be stopped if someone steps up. As a Canadian this poem speaks for me!
