Yes.

Anyway, “To see what Canadian celebrities and listeners alike have to say about the songs they’d like President-Elect Barack Obama to hear, visit the official contest website,” says the CBC, and there you’ll find:

“His playlist could definitely benefit from some Canadian content, especially given the depth of our musical offerings — spanning a wide variety of genres and representing our culture from coast to coast.”

Says Denise Donlon, executive director, CBC Radio, “We’re excited about the new President and we want him to be excited about us, so we’re asking our audience to help compile the list of our most definitive Canadian songs!”

Yes.

Bob and Doug Mackenzie’s 12 Days of Christmas should be definitely included, IOHO.

Meanwhile, you have until January 5 to submit your entry.
