Stacey Sinclair, Executive Director of the Coalition for Music Education in Canada, expressed her enthusiasm: "The recording, which features contributions from Grammy-award winning producer Greg Wells alongside Rik along with many talented young musicians and seasoned professionals, has revitalized this timeless Canadian rock classic into a powerful Music Monday anthem in remarkable ways. This collaboration not only highlights the musical prowess of its participants but also underscores the importance of music education. In the video, Gil offers an inspirational talk to the musicians in the studio, showcasing the incredible power of music to connect and inspire us all. It's heartwarming to see so many talented musicians coming together, reflecting the spirit of unity among Canadians".

Music Monday will see thousands of students, musicians, parents, and community members across Canada simultaneously singing and/or playing the anthem, creating the world's largest single event dedicated to raising awareness for music education.
