    Oh my....I've been listening to and watching videos of Gordon Lighfoot all day since I heard the news of his passing, but I haven't cried until now. This one did it. To see him there with Ian Tyson singing Alberta Bound in Alberta is just too much.

      I cried the second I heard the news and have been listening to his music and interviews since.

    Brings a tear to my eye.1988! When Canada was united. Now petty,power hungry, and misguided government has ruined it!

      And when Canada was far more ethnoculturally homogeneous & _stronger._ There's a reality that a lot of people need a serious (rude) awakening to.
