77 years old and died at home in Peterborough, Ontario.
kinda freaky considering that's only an hour away from where i am at the moment.

truely a one of a kind and one of the last true old school canadian icons/legends/god

not sure just how well he is known outside of canada, but this guy would sing songs about all the places he's been in canada

like this classic song MARGO'S CARGO

i was just there not even a month ago, and i'm pretty sure i never noticed if there was a poster of him in that place or not. i haven't been there in over a decade, so it looked all different then what i remembered it as.
