Already voted for the Hip there. I was surprised they weren't on more lists.

Voted for the Hip, almost voted for The Band, but stuck to the Hip.

I can't believe Honeymoon Suite made the list. cratch:

I'm a little surprised that Steppenwolf made the list, too. How are they Canadian? John Kay emigrated from Germany to Toronto, I'll give you that, but the rest of the band is/was American, they formed in the US and their career was based in the US. Yeah. That's a great Canadian band.
