Something half decent.
Primate1 will vouch for me here. Arcade fire, Rheostatics, King Khan and teh BBQ can't get airplay for anything...... yet they play Nickelback and Edwin as if people want to hear it.

This is okay though, the rest of their shit sucks, but this is okay.

1. Radio 2 plays some great stuff
Especially "The Signal with Laurie Brown. I live across the river from Canada (our neighbors to the South) and I listen to a lot of CBC. Thank God because American Radio sucks! Drive and Tom Allen in the a.m. also play some decent Canadian music.

2. Can't we charge Nickelback with crimes against humanity?
Please? Let's get Samantha Power on the case.

4. That would need a trial, I'm all for vigilante justice.
