"O Canada" on Kanada hümn, mida Quebeci Lieutenant Governor Théodore Robitalle volitas 1880. jaanipäeva peoks. Calixa Lavallée kirjutas muusika Sir Adolphe-Basile Routhier luuletusele, mida tõlgiti alles inglis keelde 1906. Robert Stanley Weir kirjutas sama viisile 1908. uue luuletuse inglis keeles; seda uuendati paar korda, viimati 1980. Prantsus keele sõnad on samad. "O Canada" on lauldud hümnina alates 1939. aga kinnitati kuninganna poolt 1. juuli 1980.
