SAVE OUR THEME!

It’s the end of an era.

The CBC is not renewing the license of the Hockey Night in Canada theme, a tune loved by Canadians everywhere.

But it doesn’t have to die.

Sign this petition and let the CBC know you want the HNIC theme to stay. Thanks!

We the undersigned ask the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to do whatever it takes to save the Hockey Night in Canada theme song, a beloved part of our national identity.
