I think the Mint was smart to respond quickly and rescind their earlier actions. One of Dave Gunning's musical friends, Dave Carroll, ran up against corporate indignation in United Airlines and he basically made them look foolish in a series of popular Youtube videos - i.e "United Breaks Guitars" (Dave Gunning was actually in the 2nd video.)

Bottom line - don't mess with Eastern Canadian Folk Musicians named Dave!!

The RCM did back off... it wouldn't have ended well for their image (insert chuckle here)...

Sad to see some ignorant comments by some Canadians regarding their home music scene...
