Stompin' Tom Connors 1936-2013...one of Canada's recognizable faces world wide. He never craved success outside his native Canada, and ALWAYS had both feet on the ground. Made untold millions smile while he was here...truly one of a kind.
R.I.P. Charles Thomas Connors...

Chris Hadfield‏@Cmdr_Hadfield(Internat.Space Stn.)

Very sorry to hear Stompin' Tom Connors died. I'll play Sudbury Sat Night up here today, sing with him on his way.

Talking now to Gordon Lightfoot about the passing of his friend Stompin' Tom Connors. His strongest memory is how much Tom loved Canada.

CTV Canada AM‏@CTVCanadaAM
Ronnie Hawkins tells us no one was more Canadian than Stompin' Tom Connors. "There wasn't a town he didn't talk about & sing about"

Prime Minister Harper: Stephen Harper‏@pmharper

We have lost a true Canadian original. R.I.P. Stompin' Tom Connors. You played the best game that could be played.
