Alessia Cara swept tonight's virtual Juno Awards, Canada's answer to the Grammys, where ShawnMendes won artist of the year and ToryLanez picked up rap recording of the year.
— Canada’s answer to the Grammys — taking home songwriter, pop album and album of the year for “The Pains of Growing.”
“It would have been so cool to be in Saskatoon this year, but I’m happy we’re still able to acknowledge our peers for the amazing art they’ve made over the last year,” said Cara, in presenting international album of the year for Billie Eilish’s “When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?” Usually the Junos are handed out over two nights, the majority at a private industry-only gala dinner, followed the next evening by the televised broadcast filled mostly with live performances. But the idea of this make-up virtual show was to acknowledge the 171 nominees in 42 categories who missed out on the opportunity in March to even find out if they had won.
