Entertainers
Chantal Kreviazuk
Chantal Kreviazuk is a platinum-selling, three-time JUNO Award-winning artist. In 1998, the Winnipeg native’s rendition of “Leaving On a Jet Plane” on the Armageddon soundtrack became an international hit. One of Canada’s most accomplished songwriters and recognizable voices, Chantal released her 8th studio album, “Get to You,” last summer.
Brett Kissel
Multi-Platinum, JUNO and CCMA Award winner Brett Kissel has been supporting the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) for several years. Proceeds from his song “I Didn’t Fall In Love With Your Hair” were donated to CCS, as Brett’s own mother has battled breast cancer. Brett is excited to perform for us during this special event
Tynomi Banks
With over a decade of experience, Tynomi Banks is a world-class drag entertainer. This year, she became the only drag performer to be featured in a Superbowl ad other than RuPaul. Recognized for her full production performances, Tynomi Banks dominates the stage while radiating a powerful but playful energy. She became the first Drag Entertainer to perform in Toronto’s Dundas Square during World Pride 2014 and was cast in the first season of Canada’s Drag Race in 2020.
