FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


OUTSTANDING REVIEWS FOR BRUCE COCKBURN'S CANADIAN TOUR
AFTER THUNDER BAY TOUR HEADS WEST INTO
SASKATOON, CALGARY, KAMPLOOPS, KELOWNA, VANCOUVER, VICTORIA, NANAIMO

COCKBURN PLANS TRIP TO VENEZUELA BEFORE EUROPEAN TOUR


TORONTO – OCTOBER 24, 2006 - The Canadian dates for Bruce Cockburn's
North American tour are seeing packed venues, double encores and
five-star show reviews. Performing with Julie Wolf (Ani DiFranco) and
Gary Craig (Blackie & The Rodeo Kings) critics are claiming that the
songs off LIFE SHORT CALL NOW are some of Cockburn's best material
yet. This is Bruce Cockburn's 29th release with appearances from Ani
Difranco, Damhnait Doyle, Hawksley Workman and Ron Sexsmith.

Bruce had the number one video on BRAVO in Canada last week for the
single "Different When It Comes To You". A CP wire service story
caused a buzz when it asked Cockburn what would you do if the Taliban
invaded Canada? "I would enlist, some freedoms are worth defending,
regardless of your personal beliefs about war" claimed Cockburn.

The LIFE SHORT CALL NOW tour hits Thunder Bay, Wednesday, October 25
then heads west to Saskatoon, Friday, October 27 and the Canadian tour
finishes in Nanaimo on November 6. Before Bruce embarks on the
European dates he makes a stop in Venezuela.
