Did any fellow Canadians catch the CCMAs on the global app or Amazon prime last night? What were your thoughts?
I was there and got to check out the red carpet. So many of the artists made sure to stop and talk/take pictures with as many people as possible!
I got pictures with The Reklaws, Tim Hicks, Tyler Joe Miller, High Valley, MacKenzie Porter, and Dustin Lynch, and they were all so sweet!

Is it too late to say sorry?
I found a Schulich supervisor willing to let me work and collaborate with him on a research project, so I applied for a spot. However, I have never gone through this process before so I was looking to see if anyone knows how competitive it is to actually receive the awards, especially for a first year student. I was specifically looking at the Western Undergraduate Summer Research Internship.
