  • The revived Lifetime Achievement Award, brought back earlier this year, will make Joni Mitchell only the third recipient after Pierre Juneau and Anne Murray.
  • Mitchell's long career began in 1968 with 19 studio albums and six live records, and she holds honours including Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Kennedy Center Honors; organizers say Mitchell will attend in Hamilton.
