Polaris Music Prize
One of Canada’s best bands just surprised a lot of people and won an award. This is huge.
Now a bunch of journalists are scratching their heads about how to write an article about a band whose name they cannot mention. Not a single question was asked at the press conference.
Every year, a poster is commissioned for each nominee. In 2006, Ottawa artist, Michael Deforge designed the poster for winner Final Fantasy.
This year, another set of Ottawa natives, Doublenaut, designed the poster for the winning artist. Awesome

To brighten things up, here’s a photo (also involving balloons) from this Sunday’s Pride Parade in Ottawa. Somehow, this pyramid of balloons and colourful parasols completely eclipsed the National War Memorial looking north on Elgin Street. A few more photos on xtra.ca but you’d already know that if you followed me on Twitter.
