LEONARD COHEN | HALLS OF FAME

[Roy]

Thanks Roy,

for the reminder. I have just officially voted and here's hoping Leonard wins

Don't forget that you have to check your email from CWF and click on the link to confirm your nomination or it won't count.

Yes Roy, I did that straight away - they say to do it on the site.
Don't worry, it is officially counted

[MaryB]

I just nominated Leonard for Canada's Walk of Fame, for 2010!

By the way, people *do* have to be residents of Canada to vote (it specifies it on the form, so your "province" must be a Canadian province). Sorry to leave so many of you out! But hey, everyone who lives in Canada, please nominate Leonard!

I did vote, it accepted my submission even though I put Ohio as my province

It's that time of the year again! Nominate Leonard Cohen for Canada's Walk of Fame if you haven't already.

Thanks Roy. And thanks MaryB for voting and bumping up - I hadn't gotten around to it - but now I have. And I even have a Canadian address I can use. But seeing as you could use Ohio - I hope other non-Canadians will vote, vote, vote for Leonard Cohen.

I also was able to vote officially last Tuesday even though I put my state address here in Australia. They sent me an email straight away and I replied and was counted. You just have to fill all the requested blocks with any address to be counted for a vote - so everyone all over the world you are able to vote so go for it

Thank you Roy!!

I have submitted my nomination!
And I have done the necessary follow-up - by confirming my nomination in the email that they sent to me.

Hope they get this done - this year - for Leonard Cohen.
'Bout time!!

I also just nomated Leonard for the Canadian Walk of Fame for 2011. And, yes, maybe this year they will finally recognize Leonard!

(Would a separate thread be better for this, to get the attention of all Canadian members? I will start one, hopefully that is okay!)

Eventually I will post the Leonard Cohen bios for all these 2011 awards on the Halls of Fame site, but not now, because they are not actual inductions. Plus, Leonard did not attend any of them, and there are no photos of him at these events, and I don't want to fill the top half of the Leonard Cohen | Halls of Fame site with bios that don't include pictures. I will wait until after Leonard Cohen is inducted into Canada's Walk of Fame, The Hollywood Walk of Fame, and The Kennedy Center Honors. Those three will definitely be attended to by Leonard Cohen in the future.
