Rita MacNeil, CM, ONS (May 28, 1944 – April 16, 2013) was a Canadian country and folksinger from the community of Big Pond on Nova Scotia's Cape Breton Island. Her biggest hit, "Flying On Your Own", was a crossover Top 40 hit in 1987 and was covered by Anne Murray the following year, although she had hits on the country charts throughout her career. In the United Kingdom, MacNeil's song "Working Man" was a No. 11 hit in 1990.[1]

In 1990, she was the bestselling country artist in Canada, outselling even Garth Brooks andClint Black. She was also the only female singer ever to have three separate albums chart in the same year in Australia.

Throughout her career MacNeil would receive five Honorary degrees, release 24 albums, win three Juno Awards, a SOCAN National Achievement Award,[2] four CCMA awards, eleven ECMA awards, be inducted into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame and be named to the Order of Nova Scotia and the Order of Canada
