Young added lyrics to the song, which originally appeared on his album Ragged Glory.

“Respect Mother Earth and her healing ways,” he sings. “Don’t trade away our children’s days.”

The Honour The Treaties concerts –held in Toronto, Regina, Winnipeg and Calgary — raised funds for the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation Legal Defense Fund. It also sparked debate among Canadians about the oilsands and some criticism of Young.
