Defence Minister Bill Blair announced that Heart of Oak, the popular 18th-century marching (and drinking) song of the Royal Canadian Navy , was up for cancellation.
The song unapologetically heralds the domination of colonialism in much the same way the army of the Dominion of Canada upheld the colonial legacy of France , Belgium and Britain at Ypres , Vimy Ridge and Amiens .
Robert Smol is a retired teacher who served in the Canadian Armed Forces reserves for more than 20 years .
Smol: Much repentance and breast-beating for a markedly colonial professional past as a police chief needs to take place in the defence minister’s office.
Others, like me, will never find cause to apologize for being who we are, where we came from.
