Never has one 'etc' been so unknowingly revelatory.
Zebra 3
Some favourites:
- April Wine
- The Guess Who
- Trooper

I like Sam Roberts, Sloan, The Hip, Arcade Fire and Goodspeed. I'd like to thrown Neil Young in there if I can.
I think the Guess Who are so ridiculously overrated on account of "American Woman"

Off the top of my head, 'Our Lady Peace' and 'The Guess Who' are probably my fav Canadian bands. I'm sure there's others but probably just don't realize they're from Canada. Voivod also have their entertaining moments.

Rush is good indeed. I did not know that BTO and Steppenwolf are/were from Canada. Jeff Healey is okay and Neil Young I don't like so much. And all the rest in that list are not known to me.
