I also like Canyon better than Liscano. He's better live somehow, I blame sportsnet.

Flames may be looking for a new anthem singer?

He might have a decent chance of winning.

The last time around, the riding was won pretty handily by the Liberals, but it is historically a big Conservative riding. It's Peter MacKay's old riding and his father's for years before that.

Oddly enough, the current Liberal MP worked as a lawyer in Calgary for years before running for election in Nova Scotia.

Jann Arden is way too busy to commit to that kind of schedule. This was, practically speaking, semi-retirement for Canyon.

My suggestion has always been to open the gig up to kids at various vocal schools and choirs. Kids singing always goes over well, and they are almost always very good.

Terry from FUBAR seems to want to work for the Flames pretty badly, why not give him a go?

She was actually really good. I was hoping she would take over.

I was far from a George Canyon fan but I always appreciated how quickly he got through the anthems. He never made it about himself. Whoever they hire to replace him, those qualities should be priority #1.

Agreed. Canyon always sounded like he was attempting to break speed records with every song. More of that, please.

Couldnt agree more. He didnt stylize it, he didnt aggrandize it, he just sang the anthems and then left.

Perfect.
