OK here's the deal.... I think its either about a war or some soccer tournament.. I can't see it being 9/11 cause there are too many night references in the song and 9/11 began at 9am... I have e-mailed Gordon Downie in hopes he will shed some light on this subject... I will not keep any secrets.
I do know for sure that whatever it is took place in Canada cause "Clayquot Sound to Cape Spear" is from BC to Newfoundland... so that gives us a hint.
Besides that, what's with all the insults... are you all Americans or something... sheesh! My poor country it turning on itself... that's not what Canada is all about, C'mon!!!!!
