In 1978, they released a patriotic album called “United We Stand” which was presented to every member of the Canadian Parliament. This was a timely release as Canada was struggling with national unity, a perpetual issue which had risen to the forefront once again. They received letters of support and commendation from many levels of government, including then Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. Bill retired in 1995, but continues to produce radio and television programs supporting Southern Gospel.
