Dominion Day 2015

What are some good Canadian drinking songs?

With Dominion Day today, along with the fact that Kurn and his wife are currently on vacation in Ireland, I thought it was a decent question to ask. About a week ago I created a list of Canadian drinking songs, which you can view on YouTube below:



What other ones are there to be added? When picking these songs I had two basic rules
1) The song has to mention the act of drinking and/or an actual alcohol. This isn't "fun party songs". You won't be seeing Kim Mitchell talking about patio lanterns
2) The song has to be either Canadian (ideal) or at least strongly tied to Canada. This is the bending I did of this rule so that I could include "Drunken Sailor" which has strong east coast ties despite being an American written song adopted by the British Navy. If you disagree with this bending of the second rule, you can skip the song.

Beyond this list, I don't think I've missed anything but I'm glad to be proven wrong (and expanding the list). So if you know a Canadian drinking song I've missed, leave a comment.
