Do any of our Ontario members get the magazine HighGrader? In the Spring 2006 issue there's an article by Nat Reed (p.10+) on "Gordon Lightfoot: Canada's Minstrel." Here's the link to the magazine's current issue: http://www.highgradermagazine.com/current.html

I came across this in a review of the magazine from the Utne Reader: "In case you were wondering: Northern Canada is bubbling over with inquisitive, thoughtful writers. For evidence, look no further than the pages of this spring's HighGrader. The issue spotlights topics that are specific to its chilly corner of the Americas, such as retrospectives on mining and the fur trade, but it doesn't succumb to provincialism. This spunky gem from the Northland uses the personal and the local as a starting point to access more universal concerns. Case in point: The retrospective of Gordon Lightfoot's career paints a picture of a man rooted in his local life while singing to the world about larger concerns of race, wilderness, love lost, and ships forever sunk. -- Nick Rose"
