Here's a set of music by a few Canadian artists... including some great Canadian exotica... and one track with a "Canadian" theme performed by Americans...
* * *
Song 1 : : Soft Sands
Artist : : Jimmy Namaro Trio
Album : : Driftwood
One of the only (or maybe the only) classic Canadian exotica albums out there. Here is a little info on Mexico- or Michigan-born and Hamilton, ON-raised Namaro: LINK

Song 2 : : Moanin'
Artist : : Peter Appleyard
Album : : Per-cus'-sive JAZZ
Another Canadian jazz man who has been active for years and years, and is still going strong today. Love these "Doctored for Super-Stereo" records, by the way. Here is Peter Appleyard's website.

Song 3 : : Are You There (With Another Girl)
Artist : : Percy Faith
Album : : Themes for the "In" Crowd
A king of the easy listening genre who started out at the CBC. Some info here: LINK

Song 4 : : Canadian Sunset
Artist : : The Three Suns
Album : : On a Magic Carpet
No, they're not Canadian but I can only go so long without playing something by The Three Suns... this one seemed appropriate for today.

Song 5 : : Tahiti Boat
Artist : : Jimmy Namaro Trio
Album : : Driftwood
One more by Jimmy Namaro to sail us off into the Canadian sunset...
