/* History */
Perhaps the most significant change to the Canada pavilion came in 2007, when the pavilion’s only attraction [[O' Canada]] closed for refurbishment. The closure came about after numerous Canadians began to complain that the film was dated <ref name= "book"/> During the renovations, the attraction's film was updated and given a new narration by comedian Martin Short. At this time, O' Canada’s theme song "Canada (You're a Lifetime Journey)" was also rerecorded by Eva Avila. The updated version of O’ Canada opened to guests on August 31, 2007 <ref> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/2012/04/canada_pavilion_part_two_1.html </ref>.
