Personally, I think The Wild Goose should be the Canadian national anthem. (The Blackfly Song, of course, is already the national anthem of Northern Ontario).

Wade Hemsworth is not an extremely prolific songwriter, a few years ago a CBC TV documentary (I have it on tape) on him mentioned he had written exactly 17 songs. The documentary is a great piece of work, by the way, showing the story-boarding of the famous National Film Board animated short video of "Blackfly", and featuring the McGarrigles, Murray McLauchlan and other Canadian musicians who admire Wade Hemsworth. He's an old guy now, was an influential part of the folk music scene in Montreal in the 60's--but he's never been a full-time musician/songwriter.

A couple of other songs that are in circulation are "Foolish You", also recorded by the McGarrigle sisters on their first album, and "Girls of the Town".

Good news, Brett, there is a songbook cleverly entitled "The Songs of Wade Hemsworth" (all of them). Not sure where you can get it but it's relatively recent.

If you go searching for his name on the Net, you'll probably find some references to his son, Wade Hemsworth Jr., a journalist, as well.
