If Fucked Up doesn't win... well, I guess I don't care that much, but I definitely think they've got the clear winner of that bunch.
Score = 1
Yeah for FUCKED UP! I hope they win too.
Score = -1
Toss up between Vangaalen and Fucked Up.
Score = 2

Score = 3
Yeah, not only it's Patrick Watson, but "Malijube" is in fact Malajube. Great research on that piece!
Score = 0
At least Coeur de Pirate didn't make it.
Score = 0
Joel Plaskett definitely deserves to win.
Score = 2
The funny thing is, no one in Canada cares about or has even heard of Patrick Watson, even after he won the first Polaris Prize.
Score = -3
Guess that's why Patrick Watson sold 300.000 records in canada?
Score = 3
