Rush, The Guess Who, Neil Young.................not that I agree, I am just saying there are many Canadian groups out there in the same ranks as....
not to mention Platinum Blonde, Honeymoon Suite, Stampeeders, Trooper, Triumph, Bootsauce, Rainbow Butt Monkeys, Gowan, The Rankins, The Moffats, Mitsou, Moxy Fruvus............,

I assumed the poll was asking if The Hip are CURRENTLY Canada's best rock band. I know Rush has a new cd coming out next year but I consider them retired. They put out, like, two cd's in the last 10 years. Neil Young is a solo artist and The Guess Who have been separated for years. What current rock bands in Canada are better than The Hip? I'm curious.

None.
Thats a pretty lame poll. One band versus the dozens of other bands in the nation.
Its kinda betting a friend $10 that the Senators will win the Stanley Cup, and your friend taking the bet. One team versus 29...
I know my analogy doesnt quite make sense, but you get the idea.
