Earlier this week great Canadian songwriter George Haywood died peacefully at his farm outside of Thunder Bay. Often referred to as this country's silver tongued troubadour, he left behind a collection of lyrical ballads that truly embody what it means to be Canadian.

This week This Is That pays tribute to his legacy on our show and we've posted that audio over on our Facebook page.

"Here again Canadian wind, watch me walk away..." - George Haywood from Trans-Canada Trilogy
