Down to Earth at the Ottawa Folk Festival



Steven Page brings his own non-plastic water bottle

(photo above) Ottawa Riverkeeper Meredith Brown (with her little guy) gives a passionate plea for us to stop buying plastic water bottles. One of the biggest threats to our environment. It sure opened my eyes.
I had a blast at the Ottawa Folk Festival last night! Former Barenaked Lady Steven Page was fantastic. His voice was in fine form, as was his sense of humour. He told the crowd that he doubts he will ever get the 'Order of Canada'. The Folk Festival continues all weekend long with Bruce Cockburn tonight, Joel Plaskett on Sunday.
