O Canada, this week you’ll be 148 years old. Lookin’ good! With Canada Day come the celebrations by the pool, the BBQ, under fireworks and under the influence. While you combine all those things at once, you may as well wash it down with this playlist which is 100% homegrown and Canadian! I was going to make a playlist with a song for every year that Canada’s been around, but I stopped at 13 songs I’ve come up with a carefully planned playlist consisting of 13 Canadian songs! Why 13, you ask? If you remember your Canadian geography you may recall there being 10 provinces and 3 territories, so enjoy a song for every one!

You may find this week’s playlist lacking that certain whimsy and wit you’ve come to love. That’s because I’ve been spending my allotted blogging time on something very special. This has been something pretty awesome I’ve been working on for the past few months that I’m very proud of, and it’s just about done!

So for now enjoy this homage to Canada, enjoy Canada Day (or Wednesday, to the rest of the world), and stay tuned next week!
