Polaris Prize is one of the few music awards that's worth giving a sh*t about, a) because it's solely about artistic merit and b) because it's Canadian artists. It's a cliche thing to say, but I feel that what Canada lacks in quantity, we definitely make up for in quality. I'm really proud of Canadian music in the past 20 years.
And F*cked Up winning the prize in 2009 was too beautiful.
