Does anyone know if some radio stations will play all Canadian music on Tuesday?

Sounds like a good tie-in to the
What Song Makes You Change The Radio Station? thread.

I think BOOM starts their Canada Day music at 7am and continues most of the day.

The CBC is devoting the whole day to the 'Top 500 Inuit Throat-Singing Hits'. Can't wait.

The Top 10 Most Iconic Canadian Songs of All Time

A pretty subjective list, but it's hard to disagree with most of the choices. However, I would take issue with leaving out "These Eyes" by the Guess Who, who made it a worldwide hit even before CanCon came into effect. I might also include Anne Murray's "Snowbird," simply because it's such a classic Canadian hit and it launched an amazing career.

I was surprised not to see “American Woman” - Guess Who or “You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet” - BTO included, these songs were both huge when I was living overseas. Also Steppenwolf, although they had a couple of American band members, maybe deserve a spot with ‘Born to be Wild”. And “Snowbird” should have been there RA, global hit!
