Usher Leading Best Canadian Album Vote

David Usher
We just checked some of the results of this year's Golden Toque Award for best Canadian album in our 14th annual year-end readers' poll.

We're shocked to see that David Usher's Wake Up And Say Goodbye is leading the way with a whopping 76 votes. The former Moist frontman's closest competitors are Wintersleep, whose Welcome To The Night Sky has 16 votes. That's followed by The Weakerthans' Reunion Tour with 14 and Wolf Parade's At Mount Zoomer with 11.

Why does Usher have so many votes? We've opened the poll up to unlimited voting, but he's been leading since we put the darn poll up. Did people not get the memo about it being 2008, not 1998? Where's the usual legion of Simple Plan fans? Their self-titled album so far has no votes. How is this possible?

You can vote as many times as you please in the poll until January. In the meantime, please feel free to post a link to our readers' poll on whatever fan site you choose. We enjoy internet troop surges to our site.
