A question to our neighbors to the north: Do Canadians (in general) get their undies in a bundle about %Canadian content like Americans do with %U.S. content? Just curious.

I have been told in broadcasting yes. Stations are required to play X amount of music that is from Canada, seen as a way to prevent us obnoxious Americans from drowning out their music scene. Although some of these same friends admitted that a lot of Canadian music just isn't as good either.

Has Canada produced anything musically interesting since Helen Ready?

I'm quite fond of the Canadian EDM (electronic dance music) artist known as "Overwerk", but I don't suppose most of the people here would really care for that sort of music.
I'm glad you spelled out that acronym because I would have been really confused about what an Electrical Discharge Machining artist was.
