Don't worry MinM - I don't blame Canada.  Nickleback make me ashamed
to be human.

I don't know what  Billboard's criteria are for annointing NB GotD but
I'm just going to assume it was sales since they are they epitome of
commercial banality.  If I were in charge of Billboard and I realized
I would have to make such a declaration, I think I would have just
gone dark.  Issue a press release stating that, due to overwhelming
revulsion (from when we threw up in our mouths a little), we simply
can't publish anything this week.  Come back next week with a shred of
pride and principle still left and hope nobody noticed that there was
no Group of the Decade issue.
