The '''Juno Awards''' (stylized as '''JUNOS'''), or simply known as the '''Junos''', are awards presented by [[Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences|the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]] to recognize outstanding achievements in the [[music industry]]. They were originally called the '''Gold Leaf Awards''', and the trophy resembled a [[metronome]]. Alongside the [[Canadian Screen Awards]], they are considered one of the main annual Canadian entertainment award shows. The [[Gold Leaf Awards of 1970|first Juno Awards ceremony]] was held on February 23, 1970 to honor the musical accomplishments of performers for the year 1969. New members of the [[Canadian Music Hall of Fame]] are also inducted as part of the awards ceremonies.
==History==
The Juno Awards are named in honour of [[Pierre Juneau]], the first president of the [[Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]] (CRTC) and former president of the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]] (CBC).<ref name=billboard>{{cite news|first=Karen|last=Bliss|title=Pierre Juneau, Champion of Canadian Music Talent, Juno Awards Namesake, Dead at 89|url=http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/industry/record-labels/pierre-juneau-champion-of-canadian-music-1006252552.story|work=[[Billboard Magazine]]|date=22 March 2012|access-date=15 March 2012|archive-date=31 December 2012|archive-url=https://archive.today/20121231095859/http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/industry/record-labels/pierre-juneau-champion-of-canadian-music-1006252552.story|url-status=dead}}</ref> The [[Grammy Awards]] are the United States equivalent of the Juno Awards.<ref>{{Cite news |last= |date=2023-05-02 |title=Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot has died at 84 -CBC |language=en |work=Reuters |url=https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/canadian-singer-songwriter-gordon-lightfoot-has-died-84-cbc-2023-05-02/ |access-date=2023-05-02}}</ref>
===1970s===
In 1964 ''[[RPM (magazine)|RPM]]'' magazine began polling its readers to determine which artists and groups they considered the best in Canada.<ref>{{cite journal | title=The Juno awards : tenth anniversary special issue | work=[[RPM (magazine)|RPM Publications]] | year=1980 | pages=9–10 }} "End of Year Awards" were mentioned in 7 December 1964 issue of ''RPM''.</ref><ref name="Inc.1977">{{cite magazine|first=Martin | last=Melhuish|title=Juno 1977 |magazine=Billboard|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ayMEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA76|date=23 April 1977|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|pages=76–|issn=0006-2510}}</ref> ''RPM'' announced the results of these polls each December.<ref name=CollCanadaRPM>{{cite web | url=http://www.collectionscanada.ca/rpm/028020-200-e.html | title=The RPM Story | publisher=[[Library and Archives Canada]] | access-date=27 July 2007 | first=Richard | last=Green | url-status=live | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120605223124/http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/rpm/028020-200-e.html | archive-date=5 June 2012 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> There were no formal award ceremonies.
Record label owner [[Stan Klees]] met with ''RPM'' founder [[Walt Grealis]] to plan a formal music industry awards ceremony. Instead of merely publishing the award results in ''RPM'', presentations would be made at a physical venue. The first ceremony was the [[Gold Leaf Awards of 1970|Gold Leaf Awards]] which took place on 23 February 1970 in [[Toronto, Ontario]].<ref name="40YR">{{Cite web |title=Celebrating 40 Years of Canadian Music |url=https://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/JUNO-Awards-Chronology.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160807182154/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/JUNO-Awards-Chronology.pdf |archive-date=7 August 2016 |access-date=26 April 2018 |website=junoawards.ca |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
Later that year ''RPM'' invited its readers to suggest a new name for these awards. The name "Juneau" was submitted, in honour of Pierre Juneau, the first head of the CRTC. Juneau was instrumental in establishing Canadian content regulations for broadcasters to promote Canadian musicians.<ref name="Inc.1977" /> That name became shortened to Juno and by 1971, the awards ceremonies were referred to as the "Juno Awards".<ref>{{cite encyclopedia | url=http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/juno-awards-emc/ | access-date=27 November 2013 | encyclopedia=[[The Canadian Encyclopedia]] | title=Juno Awards | first=Steve | last=McLean | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203014738/http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/juno-awards-emc/ | archive-date=3 December 2013 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
From 1970 to 1973, ''RPM'' announced the winners before the awards night. From 1974, the award winners were not made public until the Juno ceremonies.<ref>{{cite journal | title=The Juno awards : tenth anniversary special issue | work=[[RPM (magazine)|RPM Publications]] | year=1980 | pages=37 }}</ref> Music industry representatives formed an advisory committee for the Junos in 1974 which became the Canadian Music Awards Association the following year.

The Canadian Music Hall of Fame was introduced in 1978. In 1979 the stauette's name was officially changed from RPM Annual Gold Leaf Award to Juno Award, and Canada's Prime Minister [[Pierre Trudeau]] was a presenter.<ref name="40YR"/>
===1980s===
[[Joni Mitchell]] was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame by Pierre Trudeau in 1982.<ref name="40YR"/>
Initially, the awards were presented during the early part of each year. In 1984, organisers postponed that year's awards until December. CARAS maintained a late-year scheduling until January 1988 when it noted the declining viewership of the Juno broadcasts and reverted to an early year awards schedule. CARAS postponed that year's Juno Awards until 12 March 1989, so there was no ceremony in the 1988 calendar year.<ref>{{cite news | newspaper=[[The Globe and Mail]] | date=27 January 1988 | pages=C5 | title=Juno Awards move to spring | first=Chris | last=Dafoe }}</ref>
===1990s===
In 1991, the awards were hosted in Vancouver, the first time the Juno ceremonies were conducted outside Toronto. That year also marked the introduction of a category for [[Hip hop music|rap]] recordings.<ref name=CBC42>{{cite web | url=http://music.cbc.ca/blogs/blogpost.aspx?modPageName=&year=2013&month=4&title=42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards&permalink=/blogs/2013/4/42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards | title=42 things you didn't know about the Juno Awards | first=Jennifer | last=Van Evra | date=19 April 2013 | publisher=CBC | access-date=10 February 2016 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160215115050/http://music.cbc.ca/blogs/blogpost.aspx?modPageName=&year=2013&month=4&title=42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards&permalink=%2Fblogs%2F2013%2F4%2F42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards | archive-date=15 February 2016 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
For the first time the 1995 Awards, held in Hamilton's [[FirstOntario Centre|Copps Coliseum]], were open to the public. This marked the 25th anniversary of the Junos.<ref name="40YR"/>
In 1996 the four-CD, 77-song box set ''[[Oh What a Feeling: A Vital Collection of Canadian Music]]'' and a book were released to mark the 25th anniversary of the Juno Awards. The box set featured popular songs by Canadian artists from the 1960s to 1990s sold over one million copies and was certified diamond. In 2001, a second four-CD box set was released to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the awards. In 2006, a third box set was released to celebrate the 35th anniversary which was certified platinum in Canada.<ref name="Brit">{{Cite web |url=https://www.britannica.com/art/Juno-Award |title=Juno Awards |website=britannica.com |access-date=25 April 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180426214439/https://www.britannica.com/art/Juno-Award |archive-date=26 April 2018 |df=dmy-all }}</ref>

CARAS transferred the broadcast rights to the Juno Awards from CBC to [[CTV Television Network|CTV]] for the 2002 ceremonies. 2006 marked the first time the Junos were broadcast internationally through [[MTV2]] in the United States and several affiliated MTV channels in other nations.

On 18 April 2017, CARAS president Allan Reid announced that the ceremonies would return to CBC for the first time since 2002, for at least the next six years.

Stan Klees developed the first Juno trophies for the inaugural presentations in 1970.

The trophy was given minor modifications in succeeding years. These included a reduction in size for ease of handling, and changes to the inlay design such as a special 1996 emblem to signify the 25th anniversary.<ref name=JunoStat />
In 2000 following criticism from producers that the existing award trophy did not have an attractive television appearance, CARAS commissioned a redesigned award from Stoney Creek, Ontario, artist Shirley Elford.

Specific award categories and their descriptions vary from year to year reflecting changes and developments in the music industry. In 1964 there were 16 categories,<ref name="Brit" /> and in 2017 there were 42.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Here Is the Full List of 2017 Juno Winners |url=http://exclaim.ca/music/article/here_is_the_full_list_of_2017_juno_winners |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170617023454/http://exclaim.ca/music/article/here_is_the_full_list_of_2017_juno_winners |archive-date=17 June 2017 |access-date=25 April 2018 |website=exclaim.ca |df=dmy-all}}</ref> Judging panels change each year. They include people from different areas of the music industry and regions of the country. An advisory committee oversees each category to ensure that all the submissions meet the required criteria.<ref name="Brit" />
The nominations for each year's Junos are based on an eligibility period which lasts for 13 to 14 months, ending on the mid-November prior to the awards ceremony. For example, the eligibility period of the 2010 Juno Awards was from 1 September 2008 to 13 November 2009. Musicians or their representatives submit music released during the eligibility period to CARAS, designated for the appropriate nomination categories. Nominations other than for the [[Juno Award for International Album of the Year|International Album of the Year]] may only be awarded to Canadians who have lived in Canada during the last six months of the eligibility period, and are deemed Canadian by birth, passport or immigration status.<ref name="JunoSubProc">{{cite web |year=2009 |title=39th Annual JUNO Awards / CARAS Quick Reference Guide to the Submission Process |url=http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/09-Quick-Reference-Guide_Submissions.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110723175259/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/09-Quick-Reference-Guide_Submissions.pdf |archive-date=23 July 2011 |access-date=8 March 2010 |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
Following the close of the eligibility period, CARAS conducts an initial vote by its members to establish the list of nominees in most categories. Sales figures determined the nominees for [[Juno Award for Album of the Year|Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for International Album of the Year|International Album of the Year]]. Sales along with a jury vote determine the [[Juno Award for New Artist of the Year|New Artist of the Year]], [[Juno Award for New Group of the Year|New Group of the Year]], [[Juno Award for Rock Album of the Year|Rock Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Pop Album of the Year|Pop Album of the Year]]. Sales and a CARAS member vote determine the nominations for [[Juno Award for Artist of the Year|Artist of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Group of the Year|Group of the Year]].<ref name="JunoSubProc" />
After the nominees list is published, another voting round is conducted to determine the winners of most categories. Voting for the [[Juno Fan Choice Award]] is open to the public, while voting on general categories is limited to CARAS members.

The Juno Awards events were not conducted outside [[Toronto]] until 1991. Since then, the ceremonies have been hosted throughout Canada, reaching both coasts. The provinces of [[New Brunswick]], [[Prince Edward Island]], [[Quebec]], and the [[Canadian Territories|Territories]], have yet to play host to the Junos. In recent years, the various locations often host a number of supporting events and festivals surrounding the awards.

==Award categories==
The "General Field" are awards which are not restricted by music genre.
*The [[Juno Award for Artist of the Year|Artist of the Year]] award is presented to the best individual performer.
*The [[Juno Award for Album of the Year|Album of the Year]] award is presented to the performer, featured artists, songwriter(s), and/or production team of a full album if other than the performer.
* The [[Juno Award for Single of the Year|Single of the Year]] award award is presented to the songwriter(s) of a single song.
* The [[Juno Award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year|Breakthrough Artist of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year|Breakthrough Group of the Year]] awards are presented to a promising breakthrough performer(s) who in the eligibility year releases the first recording that establishes their public identity (which is not necessarily their first proper release).
Other awards are given for performance and production in specific genres and for other contributions such as artwork and video. Special awards are also given for longer-lasting contributions to the music industry. Award names have changed through the years, most notably the switch in 2003 from the phrase "Best..." to " ... of the year".
Since 2015, Breakthrough Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Fan Choice Award are the only categories that are presented at every broadcast. The awards for Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Breakthrough Group of the Year are customarily presented by the [[Minister of Canadian Heritage]].
Beginning with the 2016 ceremony, two new awards categories—[[Juno Award for Contemporary Roots Album of the Year|Contemporary Roots Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Traditional Roots Album of the Year|Traditional Roots Album of the Year]]—were introduced to "ensure two genres of music are not competing against each other in the same category".<ref>{{cite web |year=2016 |title=42nd Annual Juno Awards: 2016 CARAS Quick Reference Guide to the Submission Process |url=http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/2016-Submissions-Guide1.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160203065157/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/2016-Submissions-Guide1.pdf |archive-date=3 February 2016 |access-date=2 February 2016 |work=JunoAwards.ca |publisher=[[Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]] |df=dmy-all}}</ref>

==Criticism==
The Juno Awards have received criticism from several Canadian artists.
===Rascalz===
In 1998, the [[Rascalz]] album ''[[Cash Crop (album)|Cash Crop]]'' was nominated for [[Juno Award for Rap Recording of the Year|Best Rap Recording]]. Due to [[Canadian hip hop]]'s limited commercial notability, the rap award had never been presented during the main Juno ceremony, instead being relegated to the non-televised technical awards ceremony during the previous evening.
This fact had previously been criticized for creating a barrier to the commercial visibility of Canadian hip hop. Rascalz, however, alleged that [[racism]] was a factor in the award's disadvantageous scheduling, and became the first Canadian hip hop group to explicitly ''decline'' the award on that basis.<ref name="citizen">[http://www.octopusmediaink.com/CitizenHipHop.html "Kinder, gentler rap, eh? Canadians hip-hop onto centre stage"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081022104623/http://www.octopusmediaink.com/CitizenHipHop.html |date=22 October 2008 }}, ''[[Ottawa Citizen]]'', March 7, 1999.</ref>
Their move sparked considerable media debate about the state of Canadian hip hop. As a result of the controversy, the Juno Awards moved the rap category to the main ceremony the following year.
===Matthew Good===
[[Matthew Good]] has won four Juno Awards during his career, but has not attended the ceremonies in any of the years he won. In 2009, he criticized the awards for not promoting Canadian music at the grassroots level, saying, "When it ... isn't kind of this weekend when the Canadian music industry pretends that it's ... not just marketing warehouses for the United States, then sure, I'll be a part of it."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/no-desire-to-celebrate-junos-says-musician-matthew-good-1.791022 |title='No desire to' celebrate Junos, says musician Matthew Good |website=cbc.ca |access-date=27 April 2018}}</ref>
===Kardinal Offishall===
At the [[Juno Awards of 2006|2006 Juno Awards]], [[Kardinal Offishall]] stated that he would not attend the Junos anymore. "I'm not going to be the Juno's monkey no more, I'm not coming back any more." Offishall cited Canadian hip-hop's low profile at that year's awards as the catalyst for his decision. Offishall further stated, "Really, to me it's really atrocious what they do to hip-hop in this country and what they do for the artists... I just feel like the token hip-hop artist from Canada. For urban music in this country, I mean, not only was hip-hop not televised, but also reggae and R&B; to me, it's sickening." Offishall also criticized the Juno Awards for having the American group [[The Black Eyed Peas]] perform at that year's ceremony. "I just had enough. They had me perform last night and give away the award — to me it's all a farce, I really can't put up with it anymore. It's not even that it's embarrassing, it's just disappointing. It doesn't matter what you do in this country, for me anyway, they don't recognize what I do. It's just a bunch of garbage so I won't be a part of it anymore."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2006/04/0307.cfm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060415080142/http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2006/04/0307.cfm|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 April 2006|title=Kardinal Offishall To Boycott Future Junos|publisher=[[Chart Attack]] |access-date=22 February 2019}}</ref> Despite this, Offishall performed at the [[Juno Awards of 2021|2021]] and [[Juno Awards of 2023|2023 Juno Awards]].

The '''Juno Awards''' (stylized as '''JUNOS'''), or simply known as the '''Junos''', are awards presented by [[Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences|the Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]] to recognize outstanding achievements in the [[music industry]]. They were originally called the '''Gold Leaf Awards''', and the trophy resembled a [[metronome]]. Alongside the [[Canadian Screen Awards]], they are considered one of the main annual Canadian entertainment award shows. The [[Gold Leaf Awards of 1970|first Juno Awards ceremony]] was held on February 23, 1970 to honor the musical accomplishments of performers for the year 1969. New members of the [[Canadian Music Hall of Fame]] are also inducted as part of the awards ceremonies.
==History==
The Juno Awards are named in honour of [[Pierre Juneau]], the first president of the [[Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]] (CRTC) and former president of the [[Canadian Broadcasting Corporation]] (CBC).<ref name=billboard>{{cite news|first=Karen|last=Bliss|title=Pierre Juneau, Champion of Canadian Music Talent, Juno Awards Namesake, Dead at 89|url=http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/industry/record-labels/pierre-juneau-champion-of-canadian-music-1006252552.story|work=[[Billboard Magazine]]|date=22 March 2012|access-date=15 March 2012|archive-date=31 December 2012|archive-url=https://archive.today/20121231095859/http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/industry/record-labels/pierre-juneau-champion-of-canadian-music-1006252552.story|url-status=dead}}</ref> The [[Grammy Awards]] are the United States equivalent of the Juno Awards.<ref>{{Cite news |last= |date=2023-05-02 |title=Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot has died at 84 -CBC |language=en |work=Reuters |url=https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/canadian-singer-songwriter-gordon-lightfoot-has-died-84-cbc-2023-05-02/ |access-date=2023-05-02}}</ref>
===1970s===
In 1964 ''[[RPM (magazine)|RPM]]'' magazine began polling its readers to determine which artists and groups they considered the best in Canada.<ref>{{cite journal | title=The Juno awards : tenth anniversary special issue | work=[[RPM (magazine)|RPM Publications]] | year=1980 | pages=9–10 }} "End of Year Awards" were mentioned in 7 December 1964 issue of ''RPM''.</ref><ref name="Inc.1977">{{cite magazine|first=Martin | last=Melhuish|title=Juno 1977 |magazine=Billboard|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ayMEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA76|date=23 April 1977|publisher=Nielsen Business Media, Inc.|pages=76–|issn=0006-2510}}</ref> ''RPM'' announced the results of these polls each December.<ref name=CollCanadaRPM>{{cite web | url=http://www.collectionscanada.ca/rpm/028020-200-e.html | title=The RPM Story | publisher=[[Library and Archives Canada]] | access-date=27 July 2007 | first=Richard | last=Green | url-status=live | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120605223124/http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/rpm/028020-200-e.html | archive-date=5 June 2012 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> There were no formal award ceremonies.
Record label owner [[Stan Klees]] met with ''RPM'' founder [[Walt Grealis]] to plan a formal music industry awards ceremony. Instead of merely publishing the award results in ''RPM'', presentations would be made at a physical venue. The first ceremony was the [[Gold Leaf Awards of 1970|Gold Leaf Awards]] which took place on 23 February 1970 in [[Toronto, Ontario]].<ref name="40YR">{{Cite web |title=Celebrating 40 Years of Canadian Music |url=https://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/JUNO-Awards-Chronology.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160807182154/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/JUNO-Awards-Chronology.pdf |archive-date=7 August 2016 |access-date=26 April 2018 |website=junoawards.ca |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
Later that year ''RPM'' invited its readers to suggest a new name for these awards. The name "Juneau" was submitted, in honour of Pierre Juneau, the first head of the CRTC. Juneau was instrumental in establishing Canadian content regulations for broadcasters to promote Canadian musicians.<ref name="Inc.1977" /> That name became shortened to Juno and by 1971, the awards ceremonies were referred to as the "Juno Awards".<ref>{{cite encyclopedia | url=http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/juno-awards-emc/ | access-date=27 November 2013 | encyclopedia=[[The Canadian Encyclopedia]] | title=Juno Awards | first=Steve | last=McLean | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203014738/http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/juno-awards-emc/ | archive-date=3 December 2013 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
From 1970 to 1973, ''RPM'' announced the winners before the awards night. From 1974, the award winners were not made public until the Juno ceremonies.<ref>{{cite journal | title=The Juno awards : tenth anniversary special issue | work=[[RPM (magazine)|RPM Publications]] | year=1980 | pages=37 }}</ref> Music industry representatives formed an advisory committee for the Junos in 1974 which became the Canadian Music Awards Association the following year. This organisation assumed full management and operation of the Juno Awards from 1977 and became the [[Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]] (CARAS).<ref name="CollCanadaRPM"/><ref>{{cite encyclopedia | url=https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/canadian-academy-of-recording-arts-and-sciences-emc | title=Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences | encyclopedia=[[The Canadian Encyclopedia]] | access-date=27 November 2013 | first=Alexis | last=Luko | url-status=live | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131203015221/http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/canadian-academy-of-recording-arts-and-sciences-emc/ | archive-date=3 December 2013 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
The Junos were first televised across Canada in [[Juno Awards of 1975|1975]] on [[CBC Television]].<ref name=CJCYoung>{{cite journal | title=The CBC and the Juno Awards | first=David | last=Young | year=2005 | journal=Canadian Journal of Communication | volume=30 | issue=3 | pages=343–366 | doi=10.22230/cjc.2005v30n3a1549 | df=dmy-all | doi-access=free }}</ref> Primary ceremonies continued to be broadcast on CBC until [[Juno Awards of 2001|2001]], moving to [[CTV Television Network]] (CTV) in [[Juno Awards of 2002|2002]].

The Canadian Music Hall of Fame was introduced in 1978. In 1979 the stauette's name was officially changed from RPM Annual Gold Leaf Award to Juno Award, and Canada's Prime Minister [[Pierre Trudeau]] was a presenter.<ref name="40YR"/>
===1980s===
[[Joni Mitchell]] was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame by Pierre Trudeau in 1982.<ref name="40YR"/>
Initially, the awards were presented during the early part of each year. In 1984, organisers postponed that year's awards until December. CARAS maintained a late-year scheduling until January 1988 when it noted the declining viewership of the Juno broadcasts and reverted to an early year awards schedule. CARAS postponed that year's Juno Awards until 12 March 1989, so there was no ceremony in the 1988 calendar year.<ref>{{cite news | newspaper=[[The Globe and Mail]] | date=27 January 1988 | pages=C5 | title=Juno Awards move to spring | first=Chris | last=Dafoe }}</ref>
===1990s===
In 1991, the awards were hosted in Vancouver, the first time the Juno ceremonies were conducted outside Toronto. That year also marked the introduction of a category for [[Hip hop music|rap]] recordings.<ref name=CBC42>{{cite web | url=http://music.cbc.ca/blogs/blogpost.aspx?modPageName=&year=2013&month=4&title=42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards&permalink=/blogs/2013/4/42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards | title=42 things you didn't know about the Juno Awards | first=Jennifer | last=Van Evra | date=19 April 2013 | publisher=CBC | access-date=10 February 2016 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160215115050/http://music.cbc.ca/blogs/blogpost.aspx?modPageName=&year=2013&month=4&title=42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards&permalink=%2Fblogs%2F2013%2F4%2F42-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-Juno-Awards | archive-date=15 February 2016 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
For the first time the 1995 Awards, held in Hamilton's [[FirstOntario Centre|Copps Coliseum]], were open to the public. This marked the 25th anniversary of the Junos.<ref name="40YR"/>
In 1996 the four-CD, 77-song box set ''[[Oh What a Feeling: A Vital Collection of Canadian Music]]'' and a book were released to mark the 25th anniversary of the Juno Awards. The box set featured popular songs by Canadian artists from the 1960s to 1990s sold over one million copies and was certified diamond. In 2001, a second four-CD box set was released to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the awards. In 2006, a third box set was released to celebrate the 35th anniversary which was certified platinum in Canada.<ref name="Brit">{{Cite web |url=https://www.britannica.com/art/Juno-Award |title=Juno Awards |website=britannica.com |access-date=25 April 2018 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180426214439/https://www.britannica.com/art/Juno-Award |archive-date=26 April 2018 |df=dmy-all }}</ref>
===2000s===
CARAS transferred the broadcast rights to the Juno Awards from CBC to [[CTV Television Network|CTV]] for the 2002 ceremonies. 2006 marked the first time the Junos were broadcast internationally through [[MTV2]] in the United States and several affiliated MTV channels in other nations. The telecast of the 2006 Juno Awards was available to approximately 250 million people.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20060327/juno_awards_world_060330 | title=Juno Awards to be broadcast around the world | author=CTV.ca News Staff | publisher=[[CTV Television Network]] | date=30 March 2006 | access-date=27 July 2007 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071023103331/http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/story/CTVNews/20060327/juno_awards_world_060330 | archive-date=23 October 2007 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>

On 18 April 2017, CARAS president Allan Reid announced that the ceremonies would return to CBC for the first time since 2002, for at least the next six years.

Stan Klees developed the first Juno trophies for the inaugural presentations in 1970. These were constructed from [[walnut]] wood, stood {{convert|18|in|cm}} tall and resembled a [[metronome]].<ref name=CollCanadaRPM /><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/news/entertainment/story.html?id=ab60d316-529a-472a-83be-ff2ba9013624 |title=Junos' tune has changed from modest beginnings |first=Larry |last=LeBlanc |date=5 April 2008 |work=[[Calgary Herald]] |access-date=10 December 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120825154823/http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/news/entertainment/story.html?id=ab60d316-529a-472a-83be-ff2ba9013624 |archive-date=25 August 2012 }}</ref> When CBC televised the ceremonies in 1975, the award was constructed from [[Acrylic resin|acrylic]] instead of wood while retaining a metronome shape. The trophy was given minor modifications in succeeding years. These included a reduction in size for ease of handling, and changes to the inlay design such as a special 1996 emblem to signify the 25th anniversary.<ref name=JunoStat />
In 2000 following criticism from producers that the existing award trophy did not have an attractive television appearance, CARAS commissioned a redesigned award from Stoney Creek, Ontario, artist Shirley Elford.

Specific award categories and their descriptions vary from year to year reflecting changes and developments in the music industry. In 1964 there were 16 categories,<ref name="Brit" /> and in 2017 there were 42.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Here Is the Full List of 2017 Juno Winners |url=http://exclaim.ca/music/article/here_is_the_full_list_of_2017_juno_winners |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170617023454/http://exclaim.ca/music/article/here_is_the_full_list_of_2017_juno_winners |archive-date=17 June 2017 |access-date=25 April 2018 |website=exclaim.ca |df=dmy-all}}</ref> Judging panels change each year. They include people from different areas of the music industry and regions of the country. An advisory committee oversees each category to ensure that all the submissions meet the required criteria.<ref name="Brit" />
The nominations for each year's Junos are based on an eligibility period which lasts for 13 to 14 months, ending on the mid-November prior to the awards ceremony. For example, the eligibility period of the 2010 Juno Awards was from 1 September 2008 to 13 November 2009. Musicians or their representatives submit music released during the eligibility period to CARAS, designated for the appropriate nomination categories. Nominations other than for the [[Juno Award for International Album of the Year|International Album of the Year]] may only be awarded to Canadians who have lived in Canada during the last six months of the eligibility period, and are deemed Canadian by birth, passport or immigration status.<ref name="JunoSubProc">{{cite web |year=2009 |title=39th Annual JUNO Awards / CARAS Quick Reference Guide to the Submission Process |url=http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/09-Quick-Reference-Guide_Submissions.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110723175259/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/09-Quick-Reference-Guide_Submissions.pdf |archive-date=23 July 2011 |access-date=8 March 2010 |df=dmy-all}}</ref>
Following the close of the eligibility period, CARAS conducts an initial vote by its members to establish the list of nominees in most categories. Sales figures determined the nominees for [[Juno Award for Album of the Year|Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for International Album of the Year|International Album of the Year]]. Sales along with a jury vote determine the [[Juno Award for New Artist of the Year|New Artist of the Year]], [[Juno Award for New Group of the Year|New Group of the Year]], [[Juno Award for Rock Album of the Year|Rock Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Pop Album of the Year|Pop Album of the Year]].

After the nominees list is published, another voting round is conducted to determine the winners of most categories. Voting for the [[Juno Fan Choice Award]] is open to the public, while voting on general categories is limited to CARAS members. Winners in genre-specific or specialty categories are determined by specially appointed CARAS juries.<ref name="JunoSubProc" /> As of 2010, ballots are audited by the major accounting company [[PricewaterhouseCoopers]].<ref name="JunoSubProc" />
==Ceremonies==
The Juno Awards events were not conducted outside [[Toronto]] until 1991. Since then, the ceremonies have been hosted throughout Canada, reaching both coasts. The provinces of [[New Brunswick]], [[Prince Edward Island]], [[Quebec]], and the [[Canadian Territories|Territories]], have yet to play host to the Junos. In recent years, the various locations often host a number of supporting events and festivals surrounding the awards.

==Award categories==
The "General Field" are awards which are not restricted by music genre.
*The [[Juno Award for Artist of the Year|Artist of the Year]] award is presented to the best individual performer.
*The [[Juno Award for Album of the Year|Album of the Year]] award is presented to the performer, featured artists, songwriter(s), and/or production team of a full album if other than the performer.
* The [[Juno Award for Single of the Year|Single of the Year]] award award is presented to the songwriter(s) of a single song.
* The [[Juno Award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year|Breakthrough Artist of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Breakthrough Group of the Year|Breakthrough Group of the Year]] awards are presented to a promising breakthrough performer(s) who in the eligibility year releases the first recording that establishes their public identity (which is not necessarily their first proper release).
Other awards are given for performance and production in specific genres and for other contributions such as artwork and video. Special awards are also given for longer-lasting contributions to the music industry. Award names have changed through the years, most notably the switch in 2003 from the phrase "Best..." to " ... of the year".
Since 2015, Breakthrough Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Fan Choice Award are the only categories that are presented at every broadcast. The awards for Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Breakthrough Group of the Year are customarily presented by the [[Minister of Canadian Heritage]].
Beginning with the 2016 ceremony, two new awards categories—[[Juno Award for Contemporary Roots Album of the Year|Contemporary Roots Album of the Year]] and [[Juno Award for Traditional Roots Album of the Year|Traditional Roots Album of the Year]]—were introduced to "ensure two genres of music are not competing against each other in the same category".<ref>{{cite web |year=2016 |title=42nd Annual Juno Awards: 2016 CARAS Quick Reference Guide to the Submission Process |url=http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/2016-Submissions-Guide1.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160203065157/http://junoawards.ca/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/2016-Submissions-Guide1.pdf |archive-date=3 February 2016 |access-date=2 February 2016 |work=JunoAwards.ca |publisher=[[Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences]] |df=dmy-all}}</ref>

==Criticism==
The Juno Awards have received criticism from several Canadian artists.
===Rascalz===
In 1998, the [[Rascalz]] album ''[[Cash Crop (album)|Cash Crop]]'' was nominated for [[Juno Award for Rap Recording of the Year|Best Rap Recording]]. Due to [[Canadian hip hop]]'s limited commercial notability, the rap award had never been presented during the main Juno ceremony, instead being relegated to the non-televised technical awards ceremony during the previous evening.
This fact had previously been criticized for creating a barrier to the commercial visibility of Canadian hip hop. Rascalz, however, alleged that [[racism]] was a factor in the award's disadvantageous scheduling, and became the first Canadian hip hop group to explicitly ''decline'' the award on that basis.<ref name="citizen">[http://www.octopusmediaink.com/CitizenHipHop.html "Kinder, gentler rap, eh? Canadians hip-hop onto centre stage"] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081022104623/http://www.octopusmediaink.com/CitizenHipHop.html |date=22 October 2008 }}, ''[[Ottawa Citizen]]'', March 7, 1999.</ref>
Their move sparked considerable media debate about the state of Canadian hip hop. As a result of the controversy, the Juno Awards moved the rap category to the main ceremony the following year.
===Matthew Good===
[[Matthew Good]] has won four Juno Awards during his career, but has not attended the ceremonies in any of the years he won. In 2009, he criticized the awards for not promoting Canadian music at the grassroots level, saying, "When it ... isn't kind of this weekend when the Canadian music industry pretends that it's ... not just marketing warehouses for the United States, then sure, I'll be a part of it."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/no-desire-to-celebrate-junos-says-musician-matthew-good-1.791022 |title='No desire to' celebrate Junos, says musician Matthew Good |website=cbc.ca |access-date=27 April 2018}}</ref>
===Kardinal Offishall===
At the [[Juno Awards of 2006|2006 Juno Awards]], [[Kardinal Offishall]] stated that he would not attend the Junos anymore. "I'm not going to be the Juno's monkey no more, I'm not coming back any more." Offishall cited Canadian hip-hop's low profile at that year's awards as the catalyst for his decision. Offishall further stated, "Really, to me it's really atrocious what they do to hip-hop in this country and what they do for the artists... I just feel like the token hip-hop artist from Canada. For urban music in this country, I mean, not only was hip-hop not televised, but also reggae and R&B; to me, it's sickening." Offishall also criticized the Juno Awards for having the American group [[The Black Eyed Peas]] perform at that year's ceremony. "I just had enough. They had me perform last night and give away the award — to me it's all a farce, I really can't put up with it anymore. It's not even that it's embarrassing, it's just disappointing. It doesn't matter what you do in this country, for me anyway, they don't recognize what I do. It's just a bunch of garbage so I won't be a part of it anymore."<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2006/04/0307.cfm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060415080142/http://www.chartattack.com/damn/2006/04/0307.cfm|url-status=dead|archive-date=15 April 2006|title=Kardinal Offishall To Boycott Future Junos|publisher=[[Chart Attack]] |access-date=22 February 2019}}</ref> Despite this, Offishall performed at the [[Juno Awards of 2021|2021]] and [[Juno Awards of 2023|2023 Juno Awards]].
