The inductions BԪַ which recognize the song, not the songwriter BԪַ will take place during the Hall of FameBԪַs Legends Series presentation at TorontoBԪַs Glenn Gould Studio on Nov. 1. An evening of performances from emerging artists and conversations with inductees will highlight the event.

The Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame is rolling out editions of the Legends Series in various cities across the country.

The first event took place in Montreal on Wednesday, where French singer-songwriter Michel Rivard was honoured.

Marjolène Morin and Jean Millaire, once members of the 1970s Quebec band Corbeau, were also recognized for their work as solo writers.
