Fans Want 'Started From The Bottom' as Canada's Anthem (@Drake)



Drake's biggest fans are pushing for the artist's huge hit "Started From The Bottom" to be the Canadian National Anthem.


According to the petition site Care2, the petition was created by user Jazz Cartier, a devoted Drake fan who compared the single to Michael Jackson's Thriller. He also included that the single drove him to tears.


"On February 2nd, 2013, my life and the lives of others changed forever," the petition reads. "Canadian musician, Aubrey Graham better known to the world as Drake released the monumental, "Started From The Bottom." This wasn't just any song, this was an emotion that can never be duplicated. Tears gently rolled down my face during the first seven seconds of the song and I knew this was going to be something special. Canada aside, the world has never been the same since. "Started From The Bottom", is the modern day equivalent to Michael Jacksons, "Thriller". Others may disagree, but this is my petition and whatever I say goes. Drake motivated a nation, and gave life to a city that needed its hero."


Cartier wants to gather 1,000 signatures to bring it the government officials. As of today, the petition has over 300 signatures.
