What are the words again?

Apparently lots of Canadians don't know the words to 'O Canada'. (By the way, that's our national anthem.) The results are even more interesting linguistically:

Alberta.................83%
Manitoba/Saskatchewan...83%
Ontario.................78%
Atlantic Canada.........77%
British Columbia........75%
...but in Quebec, only 61% of respondents could rhyme off the French version without stumbling.

In the first place, the fact the numbers aren't 100% across the board is pathetic. I mean, shouldn't every Canadian know the words to our national anthem? They should, but they don't. Just look around you on the rare public occasion that O Canada is actually played at a public event -- other than a hockey game. More than half of those gathered are mute. It is just not acceptable.

I remember when I was in elementary school, we started the day with 'God Save the Queen', O Canada and The Lord's Prayer. You simply had to know the words. And, by the way, we also had to sing it in French every day. Without sounding too much like a good-old-days whiner, I think we need civic's classes brought back.
