very nice of you and others across the border(s) to acknowledge his passing, Rob

not stereotyping all Snowbirds (i was one for a few days this year actually!), but they are not typically of the mold that would have Stompin Tom cd/LPs in their collections

tom, the guy who did the hockey song
gord, the guy who did the sinking boat song
anne, the snowbird gal

i hope these folk's legacies broaden in scope

note to brad wheeler.... gord downie is not a follower, lol

Ron, I'm sorry for your loss... you guys were cut from the same red & white cloth ...you have consistently paid tribute to Tom in your decades of performing

that's a wonderful flag, char... it's now been much shared today
