Global Pinoy Singing Idol Contest at Filipino Day at Wonderland

The elimination round for the Global Pinoy Singing Idol at Canada’s Wonderland was a big hit. The global aspect of the competition and the star quality being part of the judging criteria produced a group of extremely talented contestants with some of them coming from Winnipeg and Windsor. They came from different backgrounds; from students, young adults, to middle age parents whose love of music is so strong that they are willing to put their life on hold for the chance of winning a spot in a global competition.
