This article was evidently intended to be nominated by Originalcola (talk · contribs), but they accidentially nominated the talk page instead. Their original rationale follows:

Clearly lacking any significant coverage and being non-notable, failing to meet any notability criteria. No reliable sources exist and band is not mentioned except for trivial mentions.

Note that Originalcola previously attempted to PROD this with the same rationale; this was declined by an IP. Also note that this is not the much-more-well-known singer the Weeknd, who is also from Canada. The third and final note is that my involvement is entirely procedural and I offer no opinion or further comment at this time. WCQuidditch ☎ ✎ 22:16, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep – There is sufficient non-trivial coverage in multiple sources; see a sampling I added on May 1st and 2nd, articles about the band in Exclaim!, The Hamilton Spectator, the Toronto Star, the Regina Leader-Post, and the Ottawa Citizen.

Keep in view of the multiple reliable sources coverage identified above such as Exclaim, Toronto Star, Ottawa Citizens and others that have been added as references in the article and show a pass of WP:GNG so that deletion is unnecessary in my view, Atlantic306 (talk) 21:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
