Her wit, comic timing, and her relationship with the artists bring a dynamic to the awards that I think is unprecedented in our industry.

We are thrilled to have Pamela Anderson host The 2006 JUNO Awards. With her unabashed wit and spontaneity, she is sure to make April 2nd a night to remember.

You have to win the district and regional Coach of the Year awards to get to here. It's nice to be recognized by the coaches you work with all year, but I'm where I'm at right now because of the strong support group I have in this program. One person doesn't do what we're doing, it takes a lot of dedicated people.

It is a friendly competition among builders. Awards don't increase the price of the homes, but we do get a lot of exposure from the event. People also can see the new trends in home building.

These artists didn't live in a vacuum. There was a lot more exchange between artists and institutions than we tend to believe.

How do we get better artists? Show them they are appreciated.
