  2. After decades of artistic liberties, folk singer Buffy Sainte-Marie' admits she is not #Canadian and her #Polaris music prize was revoked.

    That same day, the #Canadian #Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences said in a news release: "Following a thorough review, consultations with the CARAS #IndigenousMusic Advisory Committee, and in light of recent information, including Ms. Sainte-Marie’s confirmation that she is not Canadian, #CARAS will revoke Buffy Sainte-Marie's #JUNOAwards and Canadian Music #HallofFame induction in accordance with its eligibility requirements."

    While long swirling rumors of native ancestry go unchecked , it has been investigated that the octogenarian folk music artist had no genetic ties to indigenous tribal ancestry. Sainte-Marie has said that when she was a young adult she was #adopted by a #Cree family in the Canadian #province of #Saskatchewan and has "lived with uncertainty" about her true heritage.

  3. The "Heaven and Hell" double album has been a great return to form for Sum 41. I've been listening to it for the last couple weeks and I think they will be a fine addition to the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
