“I didn’t want to talk about it, so I wrote a song about it.” Greg Keelor

Compelled to add their voice to the chorus of voices protesting Prime Minister Harper’s Conservative government, Blue Rodeo has written the modern day protest song “Stealin’ All My Dreams”.

Recorded and filmed on September 9, 2015, the song and video chronicle the failings of the current government and asks the question, “Have you forgotten that you work for me?”

The song and video are available for free download at BlueRodeo.com/StealingDreams. The facts included in the video are also accompanied by articles encouraging the reader to delve further.

Please vote on October 19!
