Help: Canadian Folk/Comedy Singer???

From: Groverola

Does anyone know the name of the folk singer/comedian who has a song about traveling all over the world with the refrain,"but I've been Moose Jaw and now I can die"? A rebroadcast of a Kelowna show was on CBC a couple years ago and was very funny. Any help appreciated.

CBC and road shows. Sounds like it might have been Lorne Elliot of the show "Madly Off in All Directions". He usually does something he's made up about wherever they're broadcasting that week.

I agree with Jeremiah...it does sound like a Lorne Elliot-ism. Great comedian.
