This is more of a question than anything

How many people outside of Canada have taken the time to listen to this band?
They sell out major festivals and concert venues all over our country yet they have never achieved mainstream success, most Canadians will tell you that they hate them because they are pimped so regularly on Canadian Radio due to our Canadian Content laws.

Road Apples and Up To Here are probably their best albums
