Jeremiah Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 (edited) Did you ever notice that Canada is in fact cradle of big music acts? From acclaimed legends: To some of the biggest 90s female artists: To beloved 00s relics: To the biggest 2010s male artists: And many many more. Shook? Have we been on a Canadian invasion all this time and didn't realize? Edited May 25, 2022 by Jeremiah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RihFenty20 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Yes, praise my nation. It’s sad that our artists only get proper traction when they go to the USA. The music scene here sucks at retaining our cultivated talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pop Life Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Doesn't their government have a wealth of programs geared toward funding the arts? I don't think it's just about Canada having more talented musicians – those with talent are also more likely to believe that it's worth pursuing as a career. Here in the states, not only have our school music programs been ruthlessly gutted over the years, but most of the musicians that are left simply can't afford to chase their dreams.
