base talk Canada actually churned out big artists. Shook?

[Jeremiah]

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?

If you remove big artists from Canada, what remains?

[TheGreatestX]

Not surprised. Canada has always been cooler than the States.

[Blankspace2010]

Canadian artists have had legendary numbers in sales and streaming. 

[dirrtydiana]

Britney’s us singles chart peaks should look like canadas in the us. They served TASTE

[naval23]

Canada gave us Celine and Shania who are absolute legends 

[Katamari]

Canada Always Wins 

[G.U.Y_Del_Rey]

[SleepNoMore]

Yassss! So proud of my country. Also do t forget Shawn Mendes! Carly Rae Jepson! Lights! And Sarah McLachlan, Bryan Adams, Corey Hart, Alessia Cara, Tate McRae, Barenaked Ladies, Gordon Lightfoot, Jann Arden…

[Joyride]

Alanis Morissette is Canadian? what

[RihFenty20]

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. 

[LatinFreak]

[Protocol]

Don't forget Sarah McLachlan in the 90s, her 'Surfacing' album was close to Diamond

 

Also  at "relics of the 00s"

[swissman]

Paul Anka too...one of the biggest popstars/songwriters of the 1950s/early 1960s, a huge icon for that time.

[uusagii]

Neil Young too.

 

OT but seeing this makes me really proud to be Canadian lol

[glacier76]

Arcade Fire is probably the biggest current rock band outside of Coldplay.

 

Michael Buble for jazz. 

[Invisibility]

I agree

 

[dirrtydiana]

I had no idea Nelly F was Canadian I thought she was latina from the us

 

[orange22]

Not this Tate McRae snub?

1. That’s not a question so it’s wrong to use question marks.

 

2. I’m praising Canada and it’s talent and taste in music. Learn to read.

 

or as you guys would say: learn to read??

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.

Come On Over (Shania)

Jagged Little Pill (Alanis)

And Céline has like 3...

 

No one was doing it like the Canadian girls

Think so. Reminds of someone who'd still receive the grant while dating the richest man on Earth
