Polaris Music Prize Stays True to Itself After 20 Years: Critic's Take

Montreal’s Yves Jarvis won the $30,000 Canadian album of the year prize for All Cylinders, while Mustafa claimed the first-ever SOCAN Polaris Song Prize for “Gaza Is Calling.”

For 20 years, the Polaris Prize has refused to compromise. This year's winner is proof of that.

Montreal-based musician Yves Jarvis took home the $30,000 prize for the Canadian album of the year for his album All Cylinders last night (Sept. 16) at the gala at Massey Hall in Toronto and broadcast live on CBC Gem and YouTube.
