Personalities from ET Canada, eTalk,
Entertainment City and CBC will bring Canadians all the action from the red
carpet beginning at 8 p.m. (8:30 NT) on CBC-TV
MARCH 5, 2014 – In a rare,
unprecedented move, Canadian broadcasters CBC, Bell Media, Rogers Media and
Shaw Media are pairing up to host the red-carpet portion of the Canadian
Screen Awards on Sunday, March 9, 2014, at 8 p.m. (8:30 NT) on CBC-TV. Each
network will have their on-air talent involved in honouring the Canadian
celebrities in attendance while counting down to Martin Short’s opening number.
The unique cross-network approach
allows for a truly collaborative effort to showcase Canadian film and
television talent and reach the largest Canadian audience possible. The show
will see etalk’s Ben Mulroney, ET Canada’s Cheryl Hickey, and Entertainment

vice president, Content, Barb Williams and vice president, Original Content,
Christine Shipton, Rogers Media’s director of Original Programming, Nataline
Rodrigues and Bell Media’s vice president, Communications, Scott Henderson. It
was unanimously agreed that uniting to co-produce the red carpet portion of the
show would help achieve the goal of celebrating and showcasing Canadian talent
in the broadest manner.

year’s Canadian Screen Awards include Liane Balaban (The Grand
Seduction), Jay Baruchel (The Art of the Steal), Evelyne
Brochu (Tom at the Farm), Amanda Brugel (Seed), Arisa

Canada Woman Warrior- Rita MacNeil
Rita MacNeil, Jay Smith among honorees at East Coast Music Awards
STEPHEN COOKE Arts Reporter
Published March 5, 2014 - 2:28pm
Cape Breton’s First Lady of Song, Rita MacNeil, and late rock guitarist Jay Smith are among the recipients of honorary awards during April’s East Coast Music Week in Charlottetown.
Big Pond musical ambassador MacNeil, who died last April, will join the ranks of those who’ve received the East Coast Music Association’s Directors’ Special Achievement Award.
Smith, who played with Rock Ranger and Matt Mays’ El Torpedo as well as collaborating with many Canadian songwriters before his death in March of 2013, will be remembered with the Musician’s Achievement Award.
Other honorary awards during East Coast Music Week, April 2 to 6, include the Dr. Helen Creighton Lifetime Achievement Award, which will go to musical family and Rollo Bay Fiddle Festival founders the Chaisson Trio, and the Industry Builder Award, for P.E.I. music manager Grady Poe.
There are also five recipients of the Stompin’ Tom Award, including Cape Breton musician Flo Sampson, Atlantic/Halifax Jazz Festival founder Susan Hunter, P.E.I. musician and instructor Alan Dowling, Newfoundland choral and string conductor and educator Kellie Walsh and New Brunswick music journalist Bob Mersereau.
“ECMA is happy to honour the industry players and musicians who have left a lasting mark on the Atlantic Canadian music scene,” said Heather Gibson, chairwoman of the ECMA board of directors in a news release on Wednesday. “Their talent, commitment, and impact on the industry continues to inspire.”
The Director’s Special Achievement Award, Dr. Helen Creighton Lifetime Achievement Award and Musician’s Achievement Award will be presented at the East Coast Music Awards Gala on Sun., April 6. The Industry Builder and Stompin’ Tom Awards will be handed out at the Industry Awards Brunch on Sat., April 5.
ECMW organizers also announced an expanded lineup of showcase artists on Wednesday, including Nova Scotia acts Basinview Rocks, Heather Green, Little Miss Moffat, Neon Dreams, Ria Mae and Wordburglar, among others, plus a special Showcase Scotland component bringing artists and music industry figures to the event from across the Atlantic. There will also be an electronic music component presented by Red Bull Music Academy, featuring a workshop with Halifax DJ Skratch Bastid, who will also headline the Gala Awards post-party at the P.E.I. Convention Centre.
