June 7 Named Julie Doiron Day in Bruno, Saskatchewan
By Brock ThiessenWhile it's not a big secret that a whole lot of Canadians love their Julie Doiron, the folks over in Bruno, Saskatchewan apparently really, really love the soft-voiced songbird. In fact, the residents of this tiny village of 600 are so taken by the Eric's Tripper that they've officially named June 7 Julie Doiron Day.

Following a recent sold-out show at local artist centre All Citizens, the mayor of Bruno made the announcement, honouring Doiron with her very own special day in the village and presenting her with a bench. By the looks of things, Doiron was quite surprised by the whole event, and we're guessing she's quite taken by the star treatment as well.

Thanks to the powers of YouTube, you can check out the unveiling here in this nice little vid (thanks to CBC Radio 3 for the tip):
