Rush?

and definitely BNL, though I think Boston has adopted them and they're not officially Canadian anymore.

oh yeah i forgot about edwin! Another Spin Around the Sun was quite a bit better then "edwin and the pressure" although i think the pressure are pretty talented, edwin has some really really kick ass songs, but then there's some where it's like he has no quality control at all, i'm listening to it, and i'm like "how did people let you put this on the album?" But yeah i have to love Edwin he used to be with IME

:( guess not

gotta say that canada hasn't exactly been pumping out their share of quality musicians, but im surprised nobody has mentioned sarah mclachlan..at least im pretty sure she's canadian

i saw the hip at music without borders a couple years ago and they were less than fantastic

Chantal who?
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.
