In a very quiet week for new releases, Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour remains No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart for the seventh straight week, again earning the highest on-demand streams and digital song downloads and the second-highest album sales total, only behind The Tragically Hip’s Saskadelphia.


Doja Cat’s Planet Her holds at No. 2 for the second straight week, The Weeknd’s The Highlights moves 4-3, Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia slides 6-4 and Justin Bieber’s Justice holds at No. 5.

Only one album debuts in the top 50 this week, Chicago rapper G Herbo’s 25, at No. 45. It is the follow-up to his 2020 PTSD release, which peaked at No. 32.
