Key moments from tonight’s episode of Canada’s Got Talent, include:
- The STUDIO 26 DANCERS (Halifax, NS) lit up the stage with energetic, impressive dance moves that had the crowd roaring!
- 15-year-old singer KYRA DANIEL (Kingston, ON) received a standing ovation for her powerful and deeply personal cover of “Black Like Me” by Mickey Guyton. Kardinal Offishall was personally moved by the performance, saying, “it felt like a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders.”
