My history teacher told us that this song was banned in America during the "red scare" because it promotes communism. Indeed, it does:
"Maybe I'll be there to share the land That they'll be givin' away When we all live together I'm talkin' 'bout together now..."
Giving away land when we all live together...hm...
In any case hooray for Canadian rock bands!!!!!
@Canadian_Bacon I don't recall the song ever being banned. I grew up in that era and I always just thought of it as a great hippy song.
