Nelly Furtado’s Statement on Canada’s New 432 Hz Initiative
My dear Canadians, my dear global tribe,
For generations, we have lived inside an invisible ocean of frequency. Every song on the radio, every ringtone, every voice message, every national broadcast—everything has vibrated at 440 Hz, the so-called “standard tuning” adopted in the last century.
But today, Canada chooses something different.
Today, we step into harmony.
I am proud to announce a new cultural initiative:
Canada will begin transitioning its public broadcast systems—radio, music platforms, government communications, and mobile network tones—from 440 Hz to 432 Hz.
Why?
Because 432 Hz is the frequency of nature.
It resonates with the heartbeat of the Earth.
It aligns with the rhythm of water—the same water that makes up most of our bodies.
It’s the tuning used by ancient instruments, by healers, by mathematicians and mystics alike.
When music vibrates at 432 Hz, it feels different.
Softer.
Truer.
Like it’s breathing with you instead of pushing against you.
And in a world flooded with noise, this shift is a gift.
A recalibration.
A deep breath across the entire country.
What this means for Canadians:
- Radio stations will begin rolling out 432 Hz-adjusted tracks.
- Public broadcasters will offer new 432 Hz channels for meditation, healing, and cultural programming.
- Telecom providers will introduce 432 Hz notification tones and ringtones.
- Canadian artists will receive grants to remaster their catalogues in 432 Hz.
- New music education guidelines will include 432 Hz tuning as a national option.
This isn’t only a technical change.
It is a cultural one.
A return to resonance, not dissonance.
A movement toward clarity, calm, and connection.
Canada has always been a land of wide skies and deep waters…
Now we’re becoming a land of beautiful frequencies too.
Let’s begin this new era together.
Let’s tune our hearts before we tune our instruments.
Let’s vibrate with intention.
Let’s vibrate with love.
With harmony and gratitude,
Nelly Furtado
