I was surprised that no one mentioned Propagandhi, one of the better punk bands to some from Canada. They have made it into countless skate and snowboard videos throughout the 90's.

Someone mentioned Alexisonfire, I think that they are going to be the next big Canadian export. It's only logical, Dallas Green is just too good a songwriter and the genre they are in is exploding stateside at the moment.

The Dears is another group to watch out for.

No Hawksley Workman mention at all?
yeah, everyone seems to like the hip but beyond some of their early work, they just bore the fuck out of me. it seems that some people think they have to like the hip to be canadian or something.
