An inspired collection of Canadiana drawn from five languages and 200 years of history, the songs are telling descriptions of life in a glorious, but often harsh and inhospitable land. Performed by Anne Lederman on voice, fiddle, long-necked mandolin, piano and percussion, with the assistance of a stellar musical cast, these traditional songs of social comment reveal the indomitable spirit of those who would call Canada home.
