Happy Canada Day everybody. What is your favorite Canadian music?

WOW, you guys have been busy.  Max Webster, that is a big one for me, I saw them in my High school gym every year, they were equal to Rush in doing the local scene, Rush kept getting bigger and Max Webster disappeared, to re-emerge as Kim Mitchell.  That cat sure could play guitar, he would solo for 20 minutes straight it seemed.  This thread had turned into quite a hoot, I am glad I started it.  

Here is the way I remember Max Webster, check out the guitar solo at 2:04!!!!

Max Webster rocked and liked a bit of Kim Mitchell solo. He`s a DJ at Toronto`s big classic rock station now..Q107....Go figure!!  You forgot this one..Same era as Max Webster.

Triumph! Rik Emmett is an amazing guitar and classical guitar player. Didn`t like Gil Moore too much. Why did he have a big drumset and just played snare all the time. Plus i don`t like drummers that sing. Double ego and no stage presence which is why i think they didn`t go as far as they should of.
Should of just let emmett sing all the time.

Here`s another one that got started from just a tiny show called Speakers Corner where you sit in a booth and say and do whatever. I was on that show but wont tell you what i was talking about..LOL ..or doing

i think they actually sang this one in the booth too. If i had a million dollars.
