Carly Rae Jepsen conduce la corsa delle nomination dei Juno Awards, i premi dell'industria discografica canadese. Carly, 27 anni, nata nella British Columbia canadese, tira la volata con 5 menzioni; la tallona, a quota quattro, Justin Bieber mentre a tre appare il "grande vecchio" della canzone d'autore, Leonard Cohen. I Juno Awards-Canada's Music Awards vengono assegnati dal febbraio 1970. La sede è sempre stata a Toronto, ma nel 1991 si è deciso di portare la cerimonia anche presso altre città della nazione nordamericana e così la serata di premiazione ha avuto luogo anche a, tra le altre sedi, Halifax, Ottawa e Saskatoon. L'edizione 2011 è però tornata a Toronto dove, all'Air Canada Centre, è stata presentata dal rapper Drake. La tornata 2012 si è svolta presso lo Scotiabank Place di Ottawa, Ontario, e Michael Bublé si è accaparrato, davanti a 12.000 spettatori, il trofeo "Album of the year" per il suo disco natalizio.
