Stompin' Tom is the best canadian musician ever. By far.

yeehaw.

latinsoulchild · TOP Guru

Hmmmmmm Canadian musicians?

I'd say there are many. Alot in the rock, adult contemporary and country field but my fav TRUE musicians would have to be in the Jazz department like Micheal Buble and a whole list of other players. Notable mentions for sure would have to be Glenn Lewis who's an amazing R&B vocalist and an excellent writer.

Bryan Adams and Shania Twain are up there as well for sure. Celine Dion don't entice me because although she has an amazing voice, she's an interpreter....she doesn't write her own songs. Not that I know of at least.

I'm a big fan of the many local.....let's not use local anymore...I'm gonna use National artists...yeah!

I'm a HUGE fan of our national talent here in the city and abroad as well.

@Ladybug - you serious??...me?!?! I'm honestly shocked that you picked me on top of the whole buncha talent we have here! Dios te bendiga ugie...u made my day chula....thank you!

Jaime Cruz · Foro Master

Rock - Our lady peace, Barenaked Ladies

Pop - Celine Dion, Shania Twain(country but really pop)

Hip Hop - Great but underated is Kardinal Official

R&B - Canadian R&B is almost non-existant but Deborah Cox was good and Glen Lewis was good during his 15 minutes a few years ago.
