Mariposa Festival co-founder Ruth Jones-McVeigh gave an enduring gift to Canadian music
January 21, 2026
On July 11, 2010, in Orillia, Ont., the folk duo of Ian Tyson and Sylvia Tyson reunited at the Mariposa Folk Festival for a surprise performance of their melancholic Canadiana classic Four Strong Winds. Watching the former husband and wife harmonize on the ballad about a failed romantic relationship, 83-year-old Ruth Jones-McVeigh had a tear in her eye.
She wasn’t alone.
