Forget the policy charts and economic graphs, Ottawa’s latest plan to salvage national pride is a ticket to the glitter-soaked Eurovision stage.
A rumour that’s spent the past few months swirling around Parliament Hill, Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed Canada would join the annual competition during the national noon-hour Canada Day ceremony at LeBreton Flats Park in downtown Ottawa.
“Canada is already the third-largest exporter of music on the planet and you can see from what we’ve already heard this morning, we’re about to get bigger,” the PM said during his remarks.
“And there’s another reason we’re about to get bigger because I’m pleased to announce that Canada will be joining the next Eurovision Song Competition.”
Hints of the news came down during the 2025 federal budget, which set aside $150 million for CBC/Radio Canada to “strengthen its mandate to serve the public and to better reflect the needs of Canadians,” later expressing the government’s intentions to work with the national broadcaster to “explore Canada’s participation in Eurovision.”

Just when you thought Canada couldn’t get any more gay.
But, but the last time I looked at my old fashioned, basketball sized, rotating globe, Canada was part of North America, not Europe, not even Olde Europe. Oh well!
LOL !
People are laughing about some Indians from Brampton representing “Canada”.
But I demand nothing less than Inuit Throat Singers !

If anyone from anywhere can arrive in America or Canada and just by magic soil “become American” or “become Canadian”, then why can’t Canada just “Become” part of Europe ?
If citizenship depends on civic nationalism and “shared values”, Canada shares the EU values of faggotry so it only makes sense that Canada is “european”
> “Canada is already the third-largest exporter of music on the planet…” <
Of all the stupid things to brag about.
The ChiComs must think the entire West had gone crazy.
And they’d be right.
There is some truth to that, at least by the flexible standards of today, where a word or term can mean ‘what I want it to mean’. Trans-logic is a good example.
Well seeing as how they were a British colony, they would just be returning to their roots.
At least they want to be part of Europe and not China. So thats good anyways
Whenever I hear the word “Eurovision,” I think of ABBA singing Fernando.
Here was this year’s entry from Germany

Pathetic.
As long as they don’t send Bryan Adams.
Canada is now “presenting” as european (which isn’t difficult given the shared values of cringe globohomo faggotry)
The boast of a moron. Sweden and South Korea are nipping at Canada's heels for that empty honor and are already greater net exporters.
They could send Justin Bieber.
Justin Bieber, your time has come!
I liked Goebbels playing the drums, looking like Charlie Watts. Himmler on keyboards, Goering on the mix board.
Unbelievable what can be done with AI.
The French reaction at the end was Chef’s Kiss.
Carney is getting ready to give Canada to the EU so they can rape it’s resources
