Melissa, not sure if the Stompin' Tom theme is going to do it. Jenna, yes we still have Don Cherry. Love him or hate him, he is that rare thing in Canadian culture - a character. Dale, yup, CBC has hurt it's credibility with this one. YAM, CBC was out-played and out-classed by this. WP, GT had it first - we were wondering when you were going to visit?

In Canada, the winter sport of hockey is a year round preoccupation. Doc, you said it. It wouldn't have happened in the USA because your country understands the value of a rousing anthem. Barbara, yes, Hockey night in Canada in the summer olympics Dick, good point on hockey. In Canada, the winter sport of hockey is a year round preoccupation.
