How do you define "Canadian"?

What's non deleted paper?
What's deleted paper, for that matter?

Take a look at the cover of the album.

On the bottom left corner there is a newspaper....there is no title to the paper....I have one where there is

"There are always the inevitable last minute crises, such as the Chicago Daily Tribune being still so embarrassed about their 'Dewey defeats Truman' error of more than thirty years ago that they actually refused to let us use it on the cover!" - Neil Peart, "Personal Waves", Permanent Waves Tourbook

"We shot the newspaper with the headline 'Dewey Defeats Truman,' which now looks like '(Arabic)-Daily-(Arabic),' because we got a threat from the legal people at the Chicago Tribune, who are still embarrassed about their over-anxious printing of that headline...anything that pertains to that headline, according to the Chicago Tribune, is an embarrassment, and is subject to litigation if we were to print up any facet of it. [Webmaster note: When Harry Truman ran against Thomas Dewey for president of the United States, Truman lost in most of the states in the early returns. It looked like Dewey was going to win and the Chicago Tribune released a paper containing the erroneous headline early the next morning, Nov. 4, 1948.] To boot, Coca-Cola asked that we strip out their billboard way off in the background because it was too close to a cotton-clad mons pubis." - Hugh Syme, "From Brainwaves to Tidal Waves: The Story Behind Rush's Album Covers", Creem, 1983

Ok, now I get it.  Wish I did have that album.  
That's one thing I miss about vinyl- the art on the jacket.
The CD's are just too small to display it properly.

I have often wondered why these labels don't offer the art for sale in full-size poster form, or at least allow downloading for folks with good-quality printers. I guess they are afraid to lose control over it.

[Guttboy]

AMEN CHAS!!!!!!!!!

The market would be outstanding!!!!  I am sure folks like me would pay for that stuff....shame things went the way of the CD as Brew mentioned!

[Steve]

Hmmmmm.....

As far as being the biggest RUSH fan around I probably have you beat!!!!!

Being a drummer for many years, I've tried to master YYZ with little luck. Neil is most likely the best drummer in the world as far as I'm concerned and his speed is almost inhuman. :-/

First heard Neil in mid-70's.

Been drumming ever since.


Hard to find a better role model (in the Rock arena)

Happy Easter Monday.

My Dilbert calendar is always noting all these wierd Canadian Holidays.

[Brewman]

Too Funny.  I have that same calendar I bet, and it indeed indicates Easter Monday for Canada.

What day do they celebrate Good Friday?

[Steve]

The Friday before Easter Monday. I know...kinda tricky!

You crazy Canadians!  That is how I would define you Canadians, crazy!  Of course, it takes one to know one, and I am just as crazy, so that was a complement!!!

This is really what it's all about...

Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Heaven, God went missing for six days. Eventually, Michael the archangel found him, resting on the seventh day. He inquired of God, "Where have you been?" God sighed a deep sigh of satisfaction and proudly pointed downwards through the clouds, "Look Michael, look what I've made."

Archangel Michael looked puzzled and said, "What is it?" "It's a planet," replied God, "and I've put LIFE on it. I'm going to call it Earth and it's going to be a place of great balance." "Balance?" inquired Michael, still confused. God explained, pointing to different
parts of Earth, "For example, Northern Europe will be a place of great opportunity and wealth while Southern Europe is going to be poor; the Middle East over there will be a hot spot. Over there I've placed a continent of white people and over there is a continent of black
people," God continued, pointing to different countries. "This one will be extremely hot and arid while this one will be very cold and covered in ice."

The Archangel, impressed by Gods work, then pointed to a large landmass in the top corner and asked, "What's that one?"

"Ah," said God. "That's Canada, the most glorious place on Earth. There are beautiful mountains, lakes, rivers, streams and an exquisite coastline. The people from
Canada are going to be modest, intelligent and humorous and they're going to be found travelling the world. They'll be extremely sociable, hard working and high achieving, and they will be known throughout
the world as diplomats and carriers of peace. I'm also going! to give them super-human, undefeatable ice hockey players who will be admired and feared by all who come across them."

Michael gasped in wonder and admiration but then proclaimed; "What about balance, God? You said there will be BALANCE!" God replied wisely.

"Wait until you see the loud-mouth bastards I'm putting next to them...."
