I would like to apologize to the rest of the world for the unleashing of Justin Bieber, Carley Rea Jepson and Nickleback!

[BrumBall]

Yeah, but you also gave us Our Lady Peace, The Stills, Crash Test Dummies and Arcade Fire so we'll let you off.

(Although you may want to sort out that American spelling )

God, there is a lot worse around than nickleback.

And of course you gave us bryan adams and the legendary Rush.

I think canada has given us far more great artists than bad ones.

So much pressed uncute tragic music snobbery in this thread hmmmmm, insecurity and low self esteem is sad to me. Do you think caring disproportionately about how credible or uncredible an act is perceived to be makes you look sophisticated and cultured? How cute. Newcomers are so adorable.

Meanwhile Carlegend Reify JepSonofgod, Allahvril Lavictory and Cherhovah Llegend remain defecating from above on the combined discographies of all the bands you mistakenly think that liking will make you look credible tee hee hee.

Or maybe, just maybe they really do think said acts are shite and are just having a wee bit of fun in what's supposed to be a light-hearted thread?

Anyway, back on topic- I'm willing to forgive your country anything for giving us Leonard Cohen so you can sleep easy.

[Soupietwist]

The Tragically Hip, Ben Caplan, The New Pornographers, Wolf Parade, Yukon Blonde.....and tons of others are pretty great.

This is why it's dangerous to post in the middle of the night. You wake up the next morning, read it back and go 'Oh My God, what was I thinking when I wrote this !!

[Domestiques]

Thank you for The Matadors and The creepshow, and the brains

[Lazlo_St_Pierre]

I thought Carly Rae Jepsen's songs sounded okay on the radio, but then I saw her attempting to sing live on ToTP and thought 'oh no'... in this day an age, when being able to project your songs live is more important than ever, I don't think she's going to be able to keep a long career going.

[eugenespeed]

Poor Bryan

[BluesTrainRadio]

I like Bryan, he is a plus point, one of the best live acts I ever saw to be honest.

Of course, Rush are one of the biggest and best bands of all time too.

I have to say, go and check out the blues and roots scene in Canada, some of the very best music in the world right now...JW Jones [ my favourite album of 2012 ], Ben Racine Band, the new Let's Riot! Music label from Nova Scotia...lots more too....

[WelshNige]

For giving us Sarah McLachlan I would forgive you anything, one of my favourite singers and superb live......

[kryskrys]

What's wrong with Carly Rae Jepsen? Call Me Maybe is a great pop song and her albums are both very strong, She writes her own material, she has a nice tone to her voice and she seems like a nice person and good role model. I don't see the problem.

I like to thank the BBC for introducing me to Sarah

Several of her songs appeared in light-hearted Canadian police show Due South

[FanFromHolland]

Holland gave you all The Vengaboys


Actually those were pretty great back then

[Makson]

Well I remain unapologetic for Ireland unleashing Westlife, Boyzone, Jedward, The Corrs, Sammy Mumba, B*Witched out into the world.
