Le Orme by a landslide...and I'm Canadian. I prefer the first and third albums by Harmonium to the one under consideration, but neither of those would best the top 8 or or so Le Orme albums. Marillion, never really got into them

I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

Ok, I must be officially old when my eyes gravitate first and foremost to the great spread of food and not the cars/women.....

thus the point of my post.... would one pick a Canadian spread over a Italian one.. errgggg.... a canadian car over an Italian one.. pffff... Anne Murray over Sophia Lauren... HAH!! so picking a Canadian album over an Italian one... no friends... sorry to break it to you...it makes as little sense as picking any of the above... some things are written in stone. No one does food, cars, beauty art and music like the Italians do man...

Don't own the Harmonium and Le Orme ones, but I've heard them both enough to feel comfortable voting here. Was going to go with the French Canadiens, but you make a damn good argument, micky, so Italian it is. 
That said, had this poll featured a different Marillion album (Misplaced Childhood), that argument wouldn't have mattered any way you slice it.

Touché...
Nine times out of ten I'd agree with you, but what Quebec may lack in elegance and extravagance, we make up for in humble simplicity!
Sugar Bush food, man. It gets you through hellish winters.
And need I say more than poutine, the gift of the gods?

Hey, don't you insult the mighty Quebec-mobile! 
- '94 Pontiac Grand-Am or equivalent
- Spray painted chalkboard black
- Considerable rust around the wheel wells (if not everywhere else)
- Always has a "Tapout", "Affliction", and/or "Monster Energy Drink" decal pasted on the rear window
- Can often be seen on Ottawa's roadways going about twice the posted speed limit
- Stereo is often blaring hair metal or Pitbull at red lights (which it does not stop for)
- Driven by these people:

You darn Canadians, always sticking together... But yeah I have to go with Harmonium, although I don't enjoy it anywhere near as much. It's pretty good, at least a 7 out of 10. | 7/10 lol

it's hard to beat "Tir sur la neige" (maple syrup taffy on snow), I must admit. But it's not enough to make a difference musically
