It is a really sad day. He was a True Canadian.

 

[desperado]

They were debating on the radio if he should get a state funeral.

Some want him inducted into the hockey hall of fame....

Some want him inducted into the hockey hall of fame....

Aside from having his song memorialized, that would be enough.

I would rather have the nation honor him as a "True Canadian". I loved how he snubbed the Juno's and shoved those awards he had received up the asses of the pretentious Canadian industry dickwads.

IMHO, Stompin' Tom deserves a state funeral more than Taliban Jack.

A true Canadian Legend.

He was from the east coast wasn't he? Was he a Newfoundlander?
