I am not sure if any one saw it but the Globe and Mail had the annual Candian nation builder award. The award is based on the views of 15 editors. The winner this year was Chantal Peticlerc a disabled athlete.
Number 4 on the final ballot Gordon Lightfoot.
"Mr Lightfoot chose to make his career in Canada and many of his songs are about Canada, providing amusical reflection of our history and striggles. The past year marked an important passage for Mr. Lightfoot who bounced back from a life threatening illness to write and sing again"
