Canadian country duo The Reklaws are launching a new initiative for mental health care.

Siblings Jenna and Stuart Walker unexpectedly lost their mother Flo in 2022, and to honour her memory they will launch the Flo Walker Stardust Fund in September. The fund supports Kids Help Phone, the only free, 24/7 mental health support service for Canadian youth nationwide.


The Reklaws are set to launch the fund at a Toronto concert they're calling The Reklaws' YEE HAW Fun-Raiser' on September 27.

On what would have been their mom's 60th birthday, they'll bring together family, friends and supporters at RendezViews in Toronto to raise money for the fund, beginning with their own six-figure donation. The fundraiser aims to bring the spirit of the farm the duo grew up on — known as YeeHaw Adventure Farm — to downtown Toronto, including games, food and drink and custom merch.

That same day, the duo will also release a collection of three new songs, titled “Outliving (For Mom),” in tribute to Flo.

"Two years ago we lost our mom to mental health," the siblings shared on Instagram. "Come join us in Toronto as we raise money for mental health by bringing a little bit of our childhood adventure farm to the big city."

Earlier this summer, The Reklaws appeared on America's Got Talent, performing an original song "People Don't Talk About" inspired by the loss of their mom.

The platinum-selling siblings will also head to Edmonton in September for the CCMAs, before coming back home to Ontario to launch the fund and celebrate their mom.

Tickets for the YEE HAW Fun-Raiser go on sale Friday, September 6.

‘Michael’ Surpasses ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ As Highest-Grossing Biopic of All Time

The film has surpassed Bohemian Rhapsody's total gross with $358.6 million at the domestic box office and $553.3 million internationally.

Michael Jackson’s biopic, Michael, has dethroned Bohemian Rhapsody to become the highest-grossing music biopic of all time, crossing $911.9 million worldwide as the Jaafar Jackson-starring film continues its global rollout.

Directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan, the Lionsgate and Universal co-production has surpassed Bohemian Rhapsody‘s total gross with $358.6 million at the domestic box office and $553.3 million internationally — with Universal generating $540.5 million of the international total after acquiring foreign theatrical and ancillary rights. The film arrives in Japan today, a territory that could push Michael past $1 billion worldwide, which would make it only the second film to cross that threshold at the 2026 global box office after Universal’s Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
