Rogers' legacy includes his recordings, songbook, and plays for which he was commissioned to write music. His songs are still frequently covered by other musicians, including children's performer [[Raffi (musician)|Raffi]] on his 1977 out-of-print album [[Adult Entertainment (album)|Adult Entertainment]], and are perennial favourites at Canadian [[campfires]] and [[song circles]]. Members of Rogers' band, including his brother [[Garnet Rogers]], continue to be active performers and form a significant part of the fabric of contemporary Canadian folk music. Following his death, he was nominated for the [[Juno Awards of 1984|1984 Juno Awards]] in the category for [[Juno Award for Artist of the Year|Best Male Vocalist]]. That same year, he was posthumously awarded the Diplôme d’Honneur of the [[Canadian Conference of the Arts]].<ref name="CCArts">{{cite web |title=Diplôme d'honneur: Past Recipients |url=http://ccarts.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Diplome-dhonneur-recipients-2011.pdf |publisher=Canadian Conference of the Arts |access-date=February 28, 2019 |archive-date=August 7, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200807104010/http://ccarts.ca/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Diplome-dhonneur-recipients-2011.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref> In 1994, his posthumous live album ''[[Home in Halifax]]'' was likewise nominated for [[Juno Award for Roots & Traditional Album of the Year – Solo|Best Roots and Traditional Album]].

His widow, Ariel, continues to oversee his estate and legacy. His music and lyrics have been featured in numerous written publications and films. For instance, his lyrics have appeared in school poetry books,{{Citation needed|date=April 2010}} taking their place alongside acknowledged classics. His song "[[Northwest Passage (song)|Northwest Passage]]" was featured in the last episode of the TV show ''[[Due South]]'', his songs "[[Barrett's Privateers]]" and "[[Watching the Apples Grow]]" having been previously featured. "Barrett's Privateers" has also been used extensively in promotion ads for [[Alexander Keith's Brewery|Alexander Keith's]] ale. In the 2005 [[CTV television network|CTV]] [[made-for-TV movie]] on the life of [[Terry Fox]], Rogers' "[[Turnaround (song)|Turnaround]]" is the music over the closing shot. As the movie ends, Fox is depicted, alone, striding up a hill, while the lyric "And yours was the open road. The bitter song / The heavy load that I'll never share, tho' the offer's still there / Every time you turn around," forges a link between these Canadian icons.<ref>{{Citation |title=Terry 2005 (Terry Fox Movie) | date=August 14, 2023 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZNR5vQc5Vc |access-date=2024-03-06 |language=en}}</ref> Many of his songs on the albums ''[[Northwest Passage (album)|Northwest Passage]]'' and ''[[From Fresh Water]]'' refer to events in Canadian history.
