Canadian Musicians Honor Elton John at Glenn Gould Prize Gala

I don't know if you knew this, but Elton John is not Canadian. In fact, he is very not Canadian. He's as British as they come. But that did not stop the luminaries of the Canadian music business from honoring Elton John on Saturday night. John was there to be honored with the Glenn Gould Prize, an international arts award that's handed out every two years. (Past honorees include Leonard Cohen, Philip Glass, and Oscar Peterson.) Honorees don't necessarily have to show up to the event, but Elton John was in the building.
