They don't televise the Junos here in Georgia because the Junos are Un-American. No opera either.

I believe the awards show was webcast.

Article at the Huffington Post, listing those nominated and the winners. There are links at the bottom to other artcles on the web.

CBC article: Juno Awards given to veterans Arcade Fire, but some newcomers too

I can find stuff with Google - pretty cool, eh?

I flicked the channel over to it a few times. Sarah McLachlan was good.

An awards show in which the Canadian music industry recognizes Canadians acts that have been recognized by the American music industry.

In 1978 Stompin' Tom Connors gave his 6 Juno awards back in protest of the trend toward giving the award to 'border jumpers' or those who don't live in Canada and work mostly outside the country. I remember him holding a press conference, at the time, and sticking them in a big cardboard box to ship off.
After his death last year, he specified that there would be no tribute to him at the award show thus boycotting the institution from the Great Beyond.
