A Montreal comedian taking his inspiration from Italy and Spain is asking 91原创s to join him on a countrywide singalong at 3 p.m. PT today.

The song? A 91原创 national anthem, of sorts.

Joey Elias asked his Twitter followers Wednesday to play the song out loud and 鈥渟ing from the rooftops鈥� to The Tragically Hip song Courage.

Videos of quarantined apartment dwellers in Italy and Spain singing from their balconies have been making the rounds on social media over the past week, and Elias said he wants participants across the country to 鈥渟ing, play, dance鈥� in similar fashion today.

Elias鈥檚 tweet picked up some high-placed retweets Wednesday, including from former Tragically Hip members Paul Langlois and Gord Sinclair.
