Canada to debut at Eurovision Song Contest 2027
The Eurovision Song Contest just got a lot tougher. Because next year, Canada is in.
can we say no thanks unless they ban israel
Oooof not a good look when a lot of Europe are boycotting it due to the genocidal Israeli's being allowed to take part. 😑
Bold statement, Mr. Prime Minister, but that's the spirit, and welcome to the club! The Euro thing is where the cool kids hang out, and we're delighted that Canada is in!
You should stop claiming we are 'connecting with or supporting Europe' since you are actually planning to make life much more difficult for folks here, there, and around the world: www.theenergymix.com/europes-reco... For no reason but to benefit U.S. oil and gas interests: bsky.app/profile/cono...
When Canada will be part of the EU? Looking forward!
All I'm saying...these guys would be slayers over there...
PROMISED MADE PROMISES DELIVERED 🤘
It's all coming back to me, eh
Let's lean into the "nation of dweebs" thing and send a dude with a toque and an accordion. A REALLY good looking shirtless dude. As I understand the voting...
I don't know why this makes me happy but it does 🇨🇦
Meh. If the "world series" can be two countries, and the "World Cup" can leave out more than half of the world, the "Eurovision" can include whatever country it wants.
As I've said previously, the EBU needs to keep the number of participants up as European nations are withdrawing in protest. 🤷
This is amazing because only three people gave a shit and I’m two of them
The country that brought you Nickelback. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.
Canada is known for producing top tier musical talent. Just sayin' #Eurovision
Time for Rush to finally win Eurovision
Happy Canada Day! 🇨🇦 Canada will make its Eurovision Song Contest debut in Bulgaria next year 🎤 Now that CBC/Radio-Canada has become a full EBU Member, Canada will be the first new country to join our lineup since Australia in 2015 🥳 www.eurovision.com/stories/cana...
Interesting! What about suspending countries from the contest while they are invading their neighbours?
good for them, but it's a shame you see the boycotting countries as disposable and replaceable instead of actually engaging with their reasons for withdrawal
Only trying to fix the financial side of things I see. Won’t help the decline though.
Canada crossing the picket line, so to speak, to join Eurovision while other nations boycott the contest over Israel's participation. What's next, America joining?
Canada will fit in very well!
You might as well take the “Euro” part out of the title at this point… 🤦🏻♂️
wouldn't it be awesome if @eurovision.tv were hosted on @eurosky.social??!! @sebastian.eurosky.social make it happen
I wish Israel would get kicked out.
Oh Canada volgend jaar dus op Songfestival
This contest is riddled with genocide enabling, voting issues, favouritism and rule breaking, and so the fact that they think this is the answer is genuinely laughable.
Thank you to the EBU for ensuring that the arguments in my dissertation begin to age well
Once again, you will do anything but ban the country that needs banned
Cue fifty-seven varieties of oh-so witty pundits joking how Canada isn’t in Europe blah blah blah like this is somehow new. I do hope they send Céline Dion.
Would've been happy about it if we didn't have some more pressing issues Ban Israel then we can party for everybody
Putting all my €€€ on BBNO$ 🫶 @bbnomula.bsky.social
Welcome to the family!! Bring on Celine!
I’ve kept telling Canadian colleagues and friends that if they want to get closer to Europe, the first step is to take part in the ESC. And here they go (or, come) ! Canada is clearly walking the talk 😁
This should mean that all the requirements for opening official EU accession negotiations have been met! 🇪🇺 ❤️ 🇨🇦
We are so jazzed about this! 🍁
I’m feeling a Céline Dion special coming on…
Now let’s kick Israel out
This is how we’ll save the world: Make the annual entry requirement to ESC a top ten ranking in the Freedom House ranking of freedom and democracy!!
Of course, a Canadian has already WON the ESC: Celine Dion
And so it begins. EUCAN is upon us!
Yay!!! I’m excited to have Canada in Eurovision!
Idk if Europe is ready for us, but I'm here for it
Great choice. How about it, @brittlestar.com, are you going to give it a try?
The impact of this is psychological. This unscripted television/contest will be in contrast to the typical programming coming from the US where Canadians are not allowed to compete. The difference between being welcomed and being excluded will have an impact.
Canada will compete in the 2027 Eurovision Song Contest, the country’s national broadcaster said on Wednesday.
Why we even keep going? Israel pays the whole show and has its own agenda
Eurovision winners Canadians may have heard of, ranked: 1. Waterloo 2. Volare
Good. Canada needs to break away from the US and be more Scandanavian
Come on. Rush should be the obvious choice.
mit nickelback droht die todesgruppe…
Wie geil ist das denn? 😍 Canada joins the ESC. Australien ist eh schon dabei. In der EU, pardon, in ESC-Land geht die Sonne dann nie unter. 🇨🇦🇪🇺🇦🇺
Finally a chance for Spectral Wound to reach the audience they deserve!
Excited to see Avril Lavigne get 34th place singing a hyper-trance-house-dubstep song called "Moose Knuckle (Wanna Touch It):
Rush oder Cryptopsy oder Propagandhi oder Comeback Kid?
Happy Canada Day / Bonne fête du Canada
But Europe doesn't even have nickels?
Ladies and gentlemen: your 2027 Eurovision award winner is Ed the Sock for his loving rendition of Carefree Highway
Keep on Rockin‘ in the Free World! #esc2027
Apply to join the EU next
Canada is to enter the Eurovision Song Contest in 2027, EBU announces.
Céline Dion for the win, again.
Release Angine de Poitrine to the mainstream masses worldwide!
And as they are a full EBU member, unlike Australia, I think they would host if they won! Only 1 hour further away time-wise than Baku. They would just need to make sure it broadcast live at 2100 CET
Wait until the USA finds out.
The question being, will Celine do it?
Eurovision - Europe, Australia, Canada - ultimately now well placed to replace NATO
(INTERIOR, DARK QUEBECOIS CASTLE) SHADOWY FIGURE: "They say you're the best. We're organizing one last job. We know you're retired. But it's--" CELINE DION: "I know what it is. I knew it from the moment you walked in."
Quebec was made for this moment. Anglo Canada will range from bemused to horrified.
gotta compensate for all the countries withdrawing over the continued participation of Israel and EBU's disastrous policies
Canada joining the EU is but a meme, but the diversification of Canadian policies towards European formats is becoming undeniable.
One step closer to EU membership. Welcome, friends! 🍁
“Canada is Europe now, practically speaking, and they’re right to want it” would not have made sense to me 10 years ago, but hey it’s the Carney Century now
First step on the long road to full EU membership.
“We don’t need boring old Spain and the Netherlands, we’ve got new friends now!”
God I hope they sing in French
🚨🇨🇦 BREAKING: Canada will participate in the 2027 #Eurovision Song Contest.
Canada will compete in the semi-finals, becoming the first country since Australia in 2015 to join the contest. CBC/Radio-Canada will announce more details on how Canada's entry will be selected later this year.
Celine Dion as their entry would be iconic
Es gibt sie noch, die guten Nachrichten.
I would love to be excited by our cool cousins joining, but it feels like yet another distraction…
Doesn’t really make sense (imo) but whatever I guess 🤷♀️
🇨🇦 #Eurovision Director Martin Green has confirmed to The Euro Trip that Canada will host the contest if they win.
se vai ficar colocando colonia na eurovision coloca a áfrica e a américa do sul inteira na competiçao
DRIVING SIX HOURS NORTH WITH FIVE HUNDRED BURNER PHONES AND DRAGGING MONTENEGRO INTO A FINAL IF IT KILLS ME
Well this is gonna be fun trying to explain to my mutuals why Canada is now in Eurovision
really excited to see what their plans are. have to think they go internal to start, though a canada national final to drum up some support in the buildup would be pretty interesting.
If they wanna participate, why not!
On one hand: I get Canada has clearly signalled it wants stronger ties to the European community while the Orange turd is in the White House and even floated joining the EU. On the other hand: It’s a panic scream by the EBU of WE NEED TO GET THE NUMBERS UP BY ANY MEANS!!! HELP!!!!
