Torontokyo
During the 2002 Christmas season, the Toronto-based TV channel CBLFT-DT was thinking about creating a singing contest for kids in eastern Canada aged 8-15 who perform a French-language version of a non-French song of recent times. The show was called Torontokyo, in which kids within that age group sing a French version of a J-pop hit that were released before the program's proposed debut. The first edition of Torontokyo took place in May 2003 at the Enercare Centre, which later became the usual venue for the contest.
