"I Wish I Had a Girl" is a hit song[1] composed by Grace LeBoy and written by Gus Kahn, whose sheet music was first published in 1907[2]. The couple married later and had eventually a son and a daughter. Billy Murray and a couple of others recorded the song in 1909.[3] Even though the song is about a person who would today be called an incel (a protocel, as the incel community would call him), Canada apparently has not yet started planning to label this song as pro-terrorist despite the fact that they have already paved the way for officials to call anyone who can relate to the lyrics of this song a "terrorist" (see here).
