I wrote this song while running as a federal candidate with the Green Party of Canada in the 42nd election. It's about fracking, mountain top removal, extractive industries and the power they've come to have over government in Ottawa and Victoria. 

Wes Regan River Tells You

This track was originally written in response to the Sochi Olympics and the "Anti-Gay Laws" and deplorable oppression that was witnessed there under Putin. It was released after a string of Conservative Candidates in the 42nd Canadian Federal Election made some really lame and outrageously bigoted comments about the Queer Community in Canada, revealing just how much Stephen Harper and his Conservatives share in common with Putin and his party members. We need to be vigilant in standing up for human rights, in making sure our own government doesn't degrade into bigotry and intolerance. Love wins.
