Canadian icon Bruce Cockburn added to his long list of awards on the weekend, bringing home two more at this year’s Canadian Folk Music Awards, the organizing committee announced Sunday.

Singer/songwriter Bruce Cockburn has added two more awards to his long list of honours. (Canadian Press/handout) The awards — contemporary album of the year and solo artist of the year — for the veteran singer/songwriter’s album Small Source of Comfort made a nice bookend for newcomer Dave Gunning’s two awards: new/emerging artist of the year and traditional singer of the year for his album A Tribute to John Allan Cameron.

Congratulations, Bruce.

I hope this is the place to leave this rather meta diary I wrote recently inspired by your ‘Closer to the Light’ song.

I’d always loved it, but yesterday, I guess it was, it just slammed me with metaphorical meanings that seemed so applicable to the times, the breather that the Occupy democracy movement is taking of necessity, etc. Anyway, here it is, and thanks for your brilliance and dedication to The Light.

And might you be about to write a song for the Democracy Movement? Hope so. ;o)
