Guess Who,  Crash Test Dummies,

Well that narrows the gap. God Shuffled His Feet was one of my favorite albums.

It would depend on the time frame involved.  Ask me to name as many songs as I can by the Beatles or by Canadian artists in the next 2 or 3 minutes, I could probably just reel off Beatles songs for the whole time and still have plenty in mind that I haven't had time to say yet, but for songs by artists that I know to be Canadian, I have to stop and think who is actually Canadian first, so the Beatles list would be longer.  Give me 3 or 4 hours, though, and, without resorting to looking anything up, I would have probably already listed almost every released Beatles song, but have a longer list of songs by Canadian artists.
