System of Eurovision Song Festival The Canadian version was announced to be released next year. It was given – not super original – by Eurovision Canada. Various countries have been competing in Europe for the last 67 years. In the United States, it is about different states and territories.

Canadian winner

Canada is not entirely new to the Eurovision Song Contest. The country has Eurovision winners as well as Belgium, one thing must be right. In 1988, Celine Dion won the Eurovision Song Contest with the song Ne bardes pass sans moiAt that time, of course, he did not participate in his native Canada, but he did participate in Switzerland, which had nothing to do with him – outside of language.

Canada also has a rich music industry. For example, Justin Bieber, Drake and The Weekend are from Canada, but so are Neil Young, Leonard Cohen and Johnny Mitchell. Of course Celine Dion can get her chance too. We are already interested in who to expect in the Canadian version.
