Lady Pi Phi is right. I was referring to Jehovah's Witnesses staying in the classroom during what's often termed as "morning excercises", which in the case of Canadians, means singing "O Canada". It's against Jehovah's Witness belief to say the pledge or sing national anthems of any country. However, to avoid being considered outcasts, many Jehovah's Witness kids stay in the classroom anyway. It's no different than not saying "under God" during the Pledge.
