The end of the year is almost two months away, but it’s not too early to begin working on end-of-year lists. Regular readers of this site know that we’ll be working on lists by province as well as overall faves, but this year we’re doing something new as well: giving you the chance to suggest your favorites. Simply add your favorite Canadian albums to the list below and tell us a little about why you’ve picked them – we may feature your comments in our Readers’ Choice year-end article! (And you might get something nice for the holidays from Team GDW…)
Note: List.ly will ask you to create an account or log in – it’s free FYI.
