Eurovision director Martin Green told the BBC the "door is open" for Canada to join the Eurovision Song Contest if it wishes. Canada has not made a formal request, but Ottawa's November fiscal plan says the Carney government is working with the CBC to explore participation. If Canada does join, it would extend Eurovision into North America, give Canadian artists access to a major international stage, and follow the precedent set by Australia’s earlier entry.
