1969, Julie & Candy and well pretty much every tune on it are like golden jello sliding down a Brazilian babe's bottom. Smooth baby, smooth!

I'm not even going to try to give a pity vote or anything like that - let's be realistic here. 

I'll continue with the crowd.

Oh, I wouln't really know who to choose. Actually, I know very little of Canadian prog. The one I have the most is from Rush (thanks to PA), whom of course are great. But I actually knew Harmonium before, and I still like "Histoires sans paroles" better than any song from Rush themselves. Also, I just got my first album from Devin Townsed, "Terria", and I'm really loving it. Once again, I like it better than any full album by Rush.

Seriously though, Loverboy isn't on PA (strange if they were I might add).

Listening to GY!BE right now, Harmonium are awesome, but it has to be Rush. They've probably released the most truly great prog rock albums by quite a way Smile

Harmonium

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

Just like the guys above my first thought was Boards of Canada too LOL!!  However as they're from Scotland......

I still voted other.  FM, responsible for an all-time top 10 album of mine, Black Noise.
