And the award for Nepo Baby of the year goes to.....

I decided to watch a selection of my PVR recording of last night's CCMA awards which took place in Kelowna. If you watched, you may also have noticed one of the biggest awards of the night "Album of the Year" was announced by Darian Duthie, which as the name suggests, and I subsequently confirmed, is the daughter of TSN mainstay James Duthie...... if you look her up on google you will discover she has no previous background in broadcasting or the like.... sad.

Yes, the award was presented by Much Music, where she has worked for a couple of months it seems.... no prior notable experience however....

I mean, if we’re awarding a Nepo Baby of the Year, surely we should also consider the son of a former prime minister, who’s recently scored a hosting gig on a network political show?

In fairness, Ben won "Nepo Baby of the year" for many consecutive years in the 2000's.

Don't know if there's a connection but there was a very well known book store chain in Vancouver called Duthie's.
It went bankrupt in 1999
