Performing this song on ‘Canada’s Got Talent’ was an obvious decision for me; I’ve been singing it for a long time so I knew that even though I was extremely nervous and emotional, I would manage to sing it.

When the time came, I said to myself that I was going to sing my life and give it my all, sing with my heart, my guts, to offer a better life to my children.” R
