i'd say they're more like the canadian equivilant of the american music awards

girlgeek January 31 2008, 05:20:04 UTC

Pretty sure they'd fall into the category of biggest deal music award in Canada.

exactly. the junos are based off sales in the same way the american music awards are. The Recording Acadamy chooses the Grammy award winners.

and for the record, Feist is from Nova Scotia.

haha, huh?

I'm really looking forward to the nominees. I think it was a pretty decent year for Canadian music....with albums from Arcade Fire, Feist, and Sunset Rubdown. Is anyone going to the Junos this year?

Is it free? DO you just show up? I want to go!
I live close

honeypants January 31 2008, 05:02:26 UTC

tashieee January 31 2008, 05:11:44 UTC

They were named after this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Juneau he started the Canadian content laws for canadian radio (don't think MuchMusic falls under it still :O )

I'm wrong, MuchMusic doesn't pay SOCAN royalties, that's what it is.
