With all of 45’s shenanigans south of the border, I was thinking how happy I am to be living right here in Canada.

Here’s Mendelson Joe performing The Canada Song. Back in the 80s when I was living in a storefront studio on Ossington Ave here in Toronto, he used to live up the street and could often be seen and heard playing music on his front stoop. Mr. Joe was hard to miss. He usually wore paint-covered coveralls cut off into shorts, because he’s a painter as well as a musician.
