Do you know what song they are singing here?

@mochekomasemola9998 Жыл бұрын

@Steel*Faith this type of songs are called wars cries,they are usually sang when big events or gathering are taking place, it's basically saying we are ready for the task ahead, in a nutshell

@sanelemakhanya9482 7 ай бұрын

The song is not actually a war cry

It’s so sad, how much ignorance is in these comments. Y’all can’t even enjoy a good song without the negativity. A lot of y’all are giving “lowey racism” now If a bunch of Americans came singing the start spangled banner y’all’s tune would change. This wildfire will come and go and y’all’s ignorance will continue to linger, and forever destroy the possibility solidarity! Wake up and grow up!!!!

I completely agree with you. Hateful comments; so many angry and unhappy people use this platform to spread hatred. I read one word where the person says Trudo will give them citizenship; why? They came to help; that is their agenda. Not everybody wants to live in Canada and USA.

As a Canadian, I think I speak for all us when I say, "thank you for your assistance and dedication" during this terrible natural disaster! But, this is just a bandaid on a long known of problem. I just hope these naysayers realize, that putting your head in the sand will not stop the effects of global warming from burning your ass! Just a quick look at the data from 1880 to now will show the steady increase in global temperatures and resulting effects on all of us. This is exactly what scientists having been warning us about to no substantial change in behavior.
