Thread Name: Songs That Mention Canadian Places
Subject: RE: Songs That Mention Canadian Places
A variant of Donkey Riding has it being around Cape Horn. Azizi, you will hear lots of Canadian place names in artists like Stan Rogers, Great Big Sea, and lots more. GBS constantly name drop Newfoundland locales-Petty Harbor, Merasheen,Fortune Bay. You also have a song done by many people over the years I believe, Farewell To Nova Scotia.

By the way, in terms of Atlantic Canada, I know a lot from Nova Scotia, Cape Breton, and Newfoundland. Does anyone know of anything particularly native to Prince Edward Island? (Besides Anne Of Green Gables)
