 Topic: Canadian prog acts that aren't called Rush

If they were included, I'm sure Rush would easily win a poll like this, so they're omitted - let's see who else is popular

I voted for Saga by default really because I don't really know nor do I care to know these other bands.

Voted for Maneige barely above Harmonium. Each band has one of my favorite all-time songs, the title song from "Les Porches" and " " from " ," but putting those two cuts aside, Maneige has the stronger remaining catalog, not to mention a greater output. So it gets my vote.

From the list, Mystery, but had they been included I would have voted for FM.

Sloche and Maneige on the list, but I would say "other" for Dionne-Bregent (can youtube it). I discovered that band because someone pointed out that I had I not included it when I came up with a personal favourite Quebec Prog list. When it comes to Canadian Prog, it's mostly about Quebec for me, and I somewhat consider Quebec to be a separate country.

Pollen!
But since they aren't an option, Sloche takes it just over Harmonium and Maneige. Their two albums are stellar!
Honorable Not Mentioned:
Opus 5
Hune
