Notes on the Canadian Election


The "You Have a Choice" that AVAAZ.com sponsored from K-OS, Ed from Barenaked Ladies, Ben Kowalewicz of Billy Talent, Adam Gontier (Three Days Grace), Sarah Harmer, Hawksley Workman, Jason Collett (Broken Social Scene), Darren Dumas (The Salads) and the Arts Offstage Choir. Written and produced by Ian Lefeuvre (The Hundreds and Thousands) and K-OS.

To be frank, I don't really like this song...the lyrics are decent but it's too folky kumbayaish for me. But perhaps it will strike a chord with you. In any event, it has an important message that these elections (both this one and the US one) will have an effect on the environment, by either accelerating or reversing the destruction our politicians have allowed to happen. If you're Canadian, it's also fun to hear and guess which familiar voice is whose.

I'm shocked at how low voter turnout was.
