The List of Canadian Poets at Wikipedia needs a lot of work!

I took a few minutes tonight and added a few omissions before I realized how late it is and how early I have to work tomorrow! In no particular order:

rob mclennan
Jon Paul Fiorentino
jw curry
Mark Truscott
Daniel F. Bradley
Stuart Ross
Ross Priddle

Also, Daniel F. Bradley poses some questions over on fhole:

(1) Toronto’s long time scene—what is happening here?
(2) What is all this Canadian lit blogging stuff doing?

Let him know what you think here.

And, lastly, Mark Truscott has a reading Wednesday August 17th at the Drake Hotel on Queen West.

His notice about it is here.

According to Mark, the reading at the Drake is part of Damian Rogers’s series, the Pontiac Quarterly. Next Wednesday’s theme: Virginity!

Wednesday, August 17
Drake Hotel
1150 Queen St. West
8:00pm, $10 or pwyc

Readings by Karen Hines, Claudia Dey, Andrew Kaufman, Mark Truscott, and angry man Edward Keenan. Essay by David Balzer, advice column “Liz, What the Fuck?” and a short film by Alex Pugsley.

Maybe afterwords we’ll all go see “The 40 Year Old Virgin”. I’ll try to grab some pics from the Drake and if I’m able will post them back here—that’s if I can get away from work next Wednesday!
