This 'Young Musicians Panel' discuss the influence Pitchfork has and Win is having a go at, what might just be the worst band in history, Nickelback. hahaha! Too funny. This is just an extract. They've now removed the video but there's still a mp3 of it available if you want to listen to the whole thing.

Summary:
"Canada has recently seen an incredible surge of artists and bands gaining national and international recognition. This panel brings together a diverse group of young, successful artists from a variety of genres for a discussion about the choices they've made, and the challenges that accompany growth. How has the existence of government funding for recording, touring and promotion affected their careers? How has their presence in Canada changed as their profiles grow outside of its borders? How have they managed the transition to being a more public figure? And, finally, what do they see as the future of the Canadian music community?"

Recorded at McGill University's Schulich School of Music.

Win looks alot like Andrei Kirilenko in this video, and he is right, nickleback sucks big time.
