- The nominator does not describe what research was done in order to come to the conclusion that this band is "non-notable". As it turns out, with some brief searching I was able to find out that the band meets WP:BAND criterion #1, with coverage in such sources as Allmusic and the Canadian Pop Encyclopedia; and WP:BAND criterion #2 with a charted hit in Canada.

- Keep per inclusion of song "Easy Love" on notable chart (Canadian Top 40), meets WP:BAND criterion 2. (Re Paul Erik's sources above, I'm not now, and have never been, convinced that Allmusic falls within Wikipedia's policy on reliable sources or independent sources - but it doesn't matter here for the reasons above.) - DustFormsWords (talk) 06:47, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
