Can't argue with #1!!
But come one, Nickelback at #5???...There's no way they're better than the Guess Who (8th), Sloan (11), and Gord Downie (54)!!!
What a load of crap in that aspect...
p.s. I don't consider Lavigne a rocker...

It's absolutely ridiculous that Loverboy would beat The Band, and putting them one ahead is just insult to injury (24, 25). Whoever thinks working for the weeknd is a better song than The Weight needs to be slapped, then shown The Last Waltz.

Yup...that's a load of bull. Come to think of it, 54.40 at #33 is a disgrace. Top 10 - 15 for sure

I also think that Neil Young has got to be second over April Wine and that Big Sugar got the shaft at #29.
Still, can't argue with #1!!

HOw about ranking of theroy of a deadman and The Trews far higher than Moist and IME... I mean come on!! IME I can see but you cannot deny that Moist was on the forefront push of Canadian Alternative Indie.... Your telling me that the trews and TOAD have more credability???
Also note the ranking of Big Sugar... This list needs to DIAF

Almost Hip - 12-04-2006
pretty much a Joke of list considering they had to throw Gord in on his own and Chad Kroeger even though their bands are represented, suprised I didn't see Edwin
pissed that Headstones are so far down the list, what's simple plan doing on there? and Avril?? hell why wasn't Shania on there too,
good to see some underdogs like Biff and Danko,
and is Joel Plascid Emergency really that good?? if it wasn't for them opening for the Hip I wouldn't know who they are and they didn't sound that great to top all the other bands
