Barenaked Ladies singer Ed Robertson was involved in a float-plane crash north of Bancroft, Canada last weekend. The singer is lucky to be alive. His plane went down in the woods north of Bancroft early Sunday afternoon. Adam Smith, a spokesman for the band says “Everyone is fine and that is the important thing. That’s all the comment we have at this time.” A police spokesperson added a couple more details saying “At 12:30 p.m. a Cessna 206 was taking off from Baptiste Lake, lost airspeed and entered a wooded area west of the lake.” The plane was reportedly totalled but all four passengers managed to walk out of the woods and soon reported the crash.
