I find that Canadian music has celtic influences that I really enjoy, and Canadian literature has cultural references that can be like little in-jokes to me.<BR/><BR/>My recommendations or favorites that you didn't mention: <BR/> <BR/>Music: Sara Harmer, Jane Siberry and Great Big Sea. <BR/><BR/>TV: "Due South" and the very recent "Little Mosque on the Prairie" are potentially interesting to Americans. <BR/><BR/>Literature, I really love Jane Urquhart (magical realism), Guy Gavriel Kay (fantasy), Jan Wong, Robertson Davies and Mordecai Richler. (Other famous Canadian authors, since you didn't mention literature: Margaret Atwood, Michael Ondaatje, Cory Doctorow, WP Kinsella, WO Mitchell, Farley Mowat)<BR/><BR/>Movies: the Canadian cult classic "Highway 61", with its incomparable scenes of the Devil playing bingo, and Jello Biafra as an American border guard.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08832467898664086593noreply@blogger.com
