Arkells Give Up Their Speech Time at JUNOs so Jeremy Dutcher Can Finish His Reconciliation Speech

"Our friend Jeremy didn't get a chance to finish."

The Arkells took home a slew of JUNOs over the weekend but I think the real win was when they offered up their speech time to someone else. Jeremy Dutcher won Indigenous Album of the Year and was giving his speech but he got cut off in the middle of his passionate talk about reconciliation.

So when the Arkells won best rock album, they gave the mic back to him so he could finish what he was saying.
