I'm looking back through web stories to see if I can find the article. It stayed in my memory because it was the first I had heard of widespread Anti-US raving in Canada, shortly following the war in Iraq.
At the time, I remember being surprised that Canadian sentiment had gone beyond neutrality and into condemnation. Also at this time I heard that our National Anthem was being booed at Hockey games in Canada. Thats when I started paying more attention. I was ticked off to no end to hear that because as far as I'm aware, Canada's anthem is not booed in the US.
Just off the top of my head I'm thinking this may have been Avril Laving (sp?) but not positive because I would probably have discounted that as being youthful boorishness and saying something for a reaction only.
I will keep looking though and I'll let you know what I find.

I suspect you may be thinking of Alanis Morrisette and her little act at the Junos ... commenting on the censoring of artists. It might have been Avril too, theer are many up here who have too much to say. At any rate, why would one listen to what artists have to say about politics? Are they more knowledgable than their listeners?
