So did you watch the Juno Awards last night?
I am not known as a huge awards show watcher on TV, but this one was done well. I wanted to check it out, given the fact that the 2024 Juno Awards to celebrate the top Canadian music talent will be in Halifax. I hope to attend next year because I can tell you that the last time the event was in the East in 2006, it was a great time!
Sunday night the Oscars went off without any major controversy this year and for the most part last night’s awards in Edmonton were pretty tame, aside from the topless protester that came on stage during Avril Lavigne’s performance.

Most of the awards are handed out prior to the wrap up event at various stages during the weekend. Here is the full list of Juno Award Winners for 2023:

Looking back at the weekend finale the same year the Halifax Metro Centre was renamed the Scotiabank Centre. One of the nominees for Fans Choice was last night’s band inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, Nickelback.
