Sirius Canada, in collaboration with The Consulate General of Canada, New York, will host an exclusive music showcase event featuring up-and-coming Canadian artists to celebrate Canada Day.
The showcase event will be held at Joe's Pub in New York City on Sunday, July 1st, will feature some of Canada’s best up-and-coming musical talent including Serena Ryder, Peter Elkas and Wil. The performance will immediately follow the Canadian Consulate’s fourth annual all-star tribute to Canadian songwriting (itself part of the Consulate’s ongoing Upper North Side Canadian Music Series at Joe’s Pub) at 7pm.
“Thanks in part to our series with Joe’s Pub, the venue has become an important partner in presenting emerging Canadian musical talent to a New York audience,” says the Consulate’s Cultural Affairs Officer, Jeff Breithaupt. “We’re thrilled that Sirius Canada is building on that momentum with what we hope will be another important Canada Day tradition in New York.”
Sirius subscribers throughout North America can listen to the concert live on Sirius' Iceberg 95 (ch 95) starting at 9:30pm ET.

Canada day in New York? Why not Toronto? Why is this not hosted by Sirius Canada? I am so sure this will go over big in NYC. My Apoligies to all the Snowbacks out there but all I want to know is when will the next shipment of Moosehead/Molson/or Labats be crossing the boarder... Oh yea.... thanks for Hockey and most of your teams( I.E. Winnipeg Jets/ Quebec Nordiques) I enjoy watching the Coyotes and Avalanch play. When can we buy the Montreal Canadians? Calgary Flames? Vancouver Canucks? Edmonton Oilers? Ottowa Senators?, We'll let ya keep the Toroto Mapleleafs. (we need a reason to tell the wife we are crossing in to Winsor)

I'm a Canadian but always had the grey market American Sirius since it has always had all the channels, so an American Canada celebration suits me fine. Besides we all know about July 4th up here, no reason not to give the Americans a bit of a reminder about us. Seriously, Americans, we were your largest trading partner up until China knocked us to second (and China/USA have a major trade deficit), we're not some arctic wasteland!
Man I wandered off track there, but while I'm at it, everyone go see "Sicko."

"Happy Canada Day, from Sirius"....
Big F'in deal! I'm sure it's just a way to appease the meddling busy-bodies at the CRTC.
I know I'm Canadian. And I don't need the Dogstar (or XM, for that matter) to jam Canadian culture into my ears. If it's any good, I'll find it myself, thank you very much!
