From the comfort of my own home, I was able to take part in CTV's Digital Media Room which included a live video stream of the interviews as they took place backstage at the JUNOS. Participants were invited to share their questions and I am happy to say that one of my questions was heard by K'naan. In response to the question on his motivation to perform during Free the Children's We Day, he replied that We Day is a combined effort and that artists partake in such events because they feel a compelling urge to do so. Other noteworthy moments in the media room included Shania's attempt to put into words, en français, how special this day was to her. Elle a bien réussi. Neil Young also discussed his radical idea that all music should be free to allow for universal access, at least at a low-quality streaming level, pointing out that Sam the Record Man never charged people to walk into the store and listen to a record before buying it. Near the end of the night, Arcade Fire appeared, notably happy and proud of their achievements. It was a truly unique opportunity to witness in vivo the excitement of the Media Room. Thank you to CTV for extending me the invitation and for providing the photos above.
