What is a song that is truly Canadian and truly represents Canadian sentiment ?
To me Four Strong Winds by Ian and Slyvia comes to mind.
Ian and Slyvia along with Gordon Lightfoot are very talented Canadian folksingers and musicians.
Pardon my mispelling of strictly.

Now to use "eh" properly your sentence should have had the "eh" at the end. :toofunny
Wonder where the other Canadians are?
Whenever I hear Snowbird by Anne Murray on the oldies station, I think of Canada...:canada

I cannot STAND "Stompin'" Tom Connors' singing and music. lol. I am Canadian through and through, but you said STRICKLY right! He should be stricken from Canadian Music! But he is certainly not STRICTLY Canadian. lol (Absolutely no offense to anyone here who posted it.) :D

Firewind it's great to see you again.
When I think of Canada I think of Gordon Lightfoot.

That song by Gordon Lightfoot,Sit down young stranger is a pretty song.
I first heard an American bluegrass band do it.
