The hockey game was on last night and I saw that Tom had died and a flood of memories came to me. It’s like he was all of Canada’s great uncle; he sang our stories, our geography. Many places I learnt about from Stompin’ Tom’s songs. It chokes me up to think of all the ways I’ve been connected to other Canadians because of a Stompin’ Tom song. Thank you for this rich documentation of your connections, it weaves the fabric of his legacy even tighter.
