Which Canuck musician will join Obama in the White House?

Which Canadian tune is worthy of presidential ears?

Is it Stompin' Tom Connors' The Hockey Song, Rockin' In the Free World by Neil Young, or maybe Crystal Shawanda's Dawn of a New Day?

Perhaps Oscar Peterson's Hymn to Freedom should ring through the White House halls?

Why not all four?

CBC Radio is calling on all Canucks to help US president-elect Barack Obama inject a little great white north influence into his music playlist.

Nominations began January 5 for '49 Songs from North of the 49th Parallel' in an effort to create a collection of music that defines our nation's diversity and culture.

CBC Radio 2 has tallied those nominations down to a shortlist of 100 selections and, starting today, invite you to help choose the final 49.
