Oh Canada – Call for Canadian artists to take part in celebrating new citizens

17.06.2020

Oh Canada – Call for all Canadian artists to take part in celebrating new Canadian citizens this Canada Day with an anthem filmed from coast to coast to coast.

The Institute for Canadian Citizenship invites you to participate in singing the bilingual national anthem as part of our Celebration of Citizenship  — an interactive virtual coming together of Canadians that celebrates the Canadian values of diversity, inclusion, and active citizenship, and offers a communal moment of hopefulness and pride.

The Celebration of Citizenship event will recognize new Canadians and immigrants who are frontline workers, and show gratitude for their contributions during the COVID-19 pandemic. It will also celebrate new Canadian citizens with a virtual citizenship ceremony, held in partnership with the Ministry of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada, that will be broadcast live.

We invite all Canadian artists to participate in this volunteer opportunity. To receive information on submitting a video, please contact Hiba Omar at homar@inclusion.ca.
