Jully Black’s changed Canada’s national anthem at Sunday’s NBA All-Star game from “our home and native land” to “our home on native land,” emphasizing “on.” She says the anthem should be permanently changed.

“I wouldn’t have sung it if I didn’t believe it should be this,” she told The Canadian Press.
