O Canada!

I don't know why, but I have a love affair with Canada. All things Canadian seem to connect with me on some deep level.

Such as:

• The Tragically Hip.
• The Barenaked Ladies.
• Arcade Fire.
• Our Lady Peace.
• Joni Mitchell.
• Leonard Cohen.
  
• The Kids in the Hall.
• Corner Gas.
• Rush.
• My favorite pro wrestlers growing up were all Canadian: Bret and Owen Hart, Chris Jericho, and He Who Shall Not Be Named.
• The first five seasons (read: the watchable seasons) of The X-Files were filmed there.
• So is the new Battlestar Galactica.
• The entire cast of SCTV.
• James Cameron, who was one of my favorite filmmakers until Titanic -- he's Canadian.
• And so on.

Those are just the ones off the top of my head. I've found a new Canadian band to love: the New Pornographers, whose "The Electric Version" has become one of my favorite Rock Band songs. The album of the same name is great, too.
