Most Canadian photo ever, eh?

All it need is a bear to play goalie. (Moose are the wrong shape entirely, and beavers would want to build a better rink.) Great picture, thanks for the link.
The most Canadian music video that I've so far been able to find.

Mm, doesn't have the necessary subtleties. Yes, it's a man playing a theme devoted to hockey on drums inside an arena, but break it down further than that.
I mean, compare it to this:

Now that's Canadian.
Now that's Canadian.
I didn't say that the Wright Bros version of Stompin' Tom was more Canadian than anything, but that it was merely comparable to Neil Peart doing the Hockey Theme in an ice rink. It is a cliché that has been done over and over. When inspecting the Canadianness of any image, video or song, I would rather there be something rich in subtleties than to be full of old clichés and canards. When I posted Marjo, I was drawing attention to Marjo doing a performance of a song that really had nothing to do with hockey, ice or skating, all on figure skates in a hockey rink to a packed crowd. She is singing in Joual with a heavy focus on drawing attention to its North Americanness and not its Metropolitane-ness.
I'm not so sure. Them antlers on a big bull would be mighty useful in keeping the biscuit out of the basket. Of course the 5-, 6- and 7-holes are pretty wide.
