Elliot Page embraces Tegan of Tegan and Sara as she accepts the humanitarian award at the Juno awards, in Halifax, Sunday, March 24, 2024.
Over the Juno Awards two nights of roughly 50 trophies, the ceremony produced a multi-way tie for most awarded artist, some impressive live performances — and at least a couple newsworthy moments.Elliot Page embraces Tegan of Tegan and Sara as she accepts the humanitarian award at the Juno awards, in Halifax on Sunday.
The awards ceremony was a professional if somewhat lacklustre night that only featured four music awards. Even so, there were some memorable moments.The most noteworthy moment may have been the 2024 humanitarian award presented to Tegan and Sara by Halifax native Elliot Page, who introduced the singer-songwriters with a powerful statement.
"If the world were not so hostile to 2SLGBTQ+ people, we would see ourselves purely as musicians," said Sara Quin, who then directly referenced the the coming legislation "I just think that some of these adults, especially the Conservatives, need to keep their noses out of families' business."When it came to award winners themselves, anyone's haul was a far cry from the Weeknd's dominant performance in 2023. Instead, musicians Charlotte Cardin, Tate McRae, Aysanabee, Tobi, The Beaches and producer Shawn Everett all took home two awards each over the course of the weekend.
Of all the winners, Charlotte Cardin stood slightly ahead of the pack. The Montreal artist led nominees this year and winners last year, and this weekend took home both pop album and album of the year for. It was a belated triumph for the Calgary singer-songwriter, who has been nominated every year since 2021 but had never before taken home a trophy.While he only won a single award, Ottawa's Talk had a night more triumphant than most.
