# Juno Award/Album of the Year

Die Juno Award für das Album of the Year („Album des Jahres“) werden jährlich von der Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences (CARA) für das beste Album aus Kanada vergeben. Der Award wird seit 1975 verliehen, lief aber zunächst unter dem Namen Best Selling Album (am besten verkaufte Album) von 1975 bis 1979. Anschließend erhielt der Preis seinen heutigen Namen, wurde jedoch von 1999 bis 2002 als Best Album vergeben. Ausgezeichnet wird der Künstler.

## Rekorde

Arcade Fire, Celine Dion, Michael Bublé und The Weeknd sind die Künstler mit den meisten Siegen. Dion ist mit 12 Nominierungen die am meisten nominierte Künstlerin.
