Hope that entries with titles containing 750 words or less are acceptable as they were for the Legislature of 2012.
rock song of Massachusetts ?
The Massachusetts Legislature actually has a bill before it concerning this?
There may even be two bills.
Discuss.

I, as a Canadian, think it's a good idea and may see if I can convince my member of parliament to put forth a private members bill suggesting that the Stomping Tom Connors (recently deseased 🙁) ditty, "The Hockey Game" be Canada's Rock song.

Originally posted by Great Big SteesI am Canadian as well and I, too, mourn the great Stompin' Tom.

It's tough to find a song that speaks to all of Canada. There are so many that speak to each Province but no real song, that I can think of off hand, that ties us together. You might be right about The Hockey Game.
First period...

Now I see why the Boston Tea Party happened (in 1776). Take your head out of the past and join the "now". OK the near past.
