I did find a variety of ways folks (residents or visitors) in Canada can vote, here:http://www.canadasgottalent.com/vote/

Try http://www.canadasgottalent.com/episode-guide/. It doesn't seem possible to watch it live, but I don't know for sure.

Thanks, Jeri, I've been there without any satisfaction; and it is the live show I'd watch to see Emilio's performance on the 15th.

I have seen references to Americans watching the show via a live feed, and wonder if that might do the trick, but it's a bit out of my experience to know where to find such a thing.

Thank you for reviving this post ladies. Here is a little information that was sent to me in case there are some of you out there who are eligible and willing to vote.
ad.

From 9pm-2am, you can vote up to 50 times (ten times for each metho...d) which are as follow:
...
1. Call the number at the bottom of the screen after he sings (I'll post it for those of you won't be able to catch the show!)
2. Vote on-line at canadasgottalent.com
3. go to the Canada's got talent Facebook page to vote
4. Twitter your vote by going to the Canada's got talent webpage Tab
5. If you are a Rogers subscriber, you can text "vote" to the number displayed after he sings.

You are more than welcome to share this or my post with all your friends :) We need as many votes as possible (think of the dance groups that have a whole network of people voting for them....)

Here is a video of his audition. Please post it to your wall and help get his name known for the voting round! Thanks.

Unfortunately, as I understand it (see my recent link, above) one must live in or be visiting Canada to vote, kat.

Yes, gnu- I'm still looking for an online live link that would allow you and me and anyone else who wishes to watch. I have read that at least one exists... something like Max's radio show streaming, I think.

Near as I understand, it's on a Toronto TV station. Like I said above, it must be an infringement/competition thing with American Idol and such shows.

Maybe it is what you are service you are connected to. I am in Quebec and i get it on Bell Express View. if I was on some other provider maybe Citytv would not be available.

I have Rogers cable. I simply can't get a price out of Bell for their services AFTER the promotion sign-up period. Everything is so complicated with Bell. Every time I deal with Bell I am dealing with someone outside of Canada. The few times I have been able to figure things out somewhat, they are more expensive than Rogers.

Emilio just finished sing on "Canada's Got Talent". You can vote from 9:10 ET until 2:10am ET. This evening.

Send to your friends the number and you could win a trip to Jamaica. Just kidding. But vote if you can as I'm sure my nephew would appreciate it.
Here is the web site and they should have a video of Emilio very soon.

I knew that outside Canada you wonderful folks can't vote but I do appreciate the comments just the same. I will post the video as soon as it is released. My personal thoughts is that he did much better this evening than the first time. Much more relaxed.

I managed to get to a backstage interview with him but still can't find a clip of him performing.

Great to hear he is going to persue a music career full time. As far as the "twist" he spoke of in the interview, I am thoroughly pissed that I will not get to see/hear it. And I do mean PISSED!

Only thing I didn't like was that overbearing, pushy, egotistic bitch! She's got a problem. Her mouth! Apparently, Canada agrees.

A gentleman and his take on *things* was true and welcome. From what I saw on the video, he is the most talented, hands down. But, it doesn't matter if he wins or loses. Like I said, a star is born. He is a star, period. He has a great career to come and it's well deserved.

I'll bet he does better than that diva bitch in the long run. She is fulla shit. Some good shit by times, as she pointed out and her points were well taken by Emilio, but I'll point out the nasty shit maybe just because of the way she said it. Fact is, I have heard of Emilio... never heard of her before this. I'd like to hear her sing but I doubt if she is as good as Emilio. I shall You Tube her and report back.

But she is still a condscening egotisical bitch.

LOL, you do make me laugh, gnu. I hadn't ever heard of her, either, and thought she was a tad bitchy, too.

Emilio has so much grace, kindness and poise...he shines above all and will go far, I am sure. What a beautiful human being he is!

Thanks, Ad. for sharing him with us!

I could see the YouTube video of Emilio's interview, but no luck with the actual performance. video. I'm glad to read that he is going to the finals, and I think he came up with good answers to the interviewer's questions.

C. Lass,
I also thought his response was very well said. He is taking her remarks and and turning them in a constructive positive form. Nothing to gain by bitching. Good for you Emilio.

I finally got it!

Emilio said, after the arrogant ***** "always wondered" if he could make the high note (or others) or not after the build-up (I am paraphrasing - can't recall EXACTLY how she said it), "I always make it."

Good on you Emilio! "Inferior" to the other opera singer? What a diva! I vote for Emilio as hands down the best of all the contestants based on sheer talent. Of course, you need more than talent to win these competitions. Ya gotta sell tickets... CDs... concerts. All the talent in the world can't *necessarily* do that.

Just a thought; making it as a professional singer requires many skills in addition to musical ability and personal work ethic. You must be able to take useful instruction whether it's dipped in honey or vinegar, while also being willing and able to stand your ground, confident in your skills and hard work.

Whatever we think of her manner or attitude, and whether or not it's intentional, this judge is giving Emilio a chance to show he has the skills, can learn from criticism, and can balance appropriate modesty with the ability to stand his ground and deal with challenges under pressure. Thanks to her for that opportunity and... "Bravo, Emilio!"

I am also very anxious for the show. A lot happening for me on the 13th as well. Being mother's day I have organized a special 2 hour concert in the afternoon where by if you are 16 and under you can come for free if accompanied with an adult. These two musicians are not close to opera but I love'em just the same
