Default LIGHTFOOT DAY in TORONTO?

http://torontosunfamily.blogspot.com...foot-bash.html

clicking on GORDON LIGHTFOOT in the text of the article above sends you to an article here at CORFID on the occasion of Gord's 60th birthday.

I'm all for this!

Denise Donlon! lol
Mrs. Murray Mclaughlin...
sheesh..

I'm going to follow up with the folks at the Sun about this..
it may be too late in the year to get any formal recognition as per our "Blondeness" at City Hall..

As much as it would be so appropriate for his 70th it would be great in November 2009 when he's actually in town for Massey - and we could all be there! woo-hoo! PARTY at Yonge/Dundas Square!! ..

They should name november 17th gordon lightfoot day. Eventhough im states side i am definately for it. It still stinks that the music industry down here cant open there eyes and induct him in the rock and roll hall of fame. He is beyond deserving of that honor.
