Canada’s most high-profile talent show is returning for another season, and this time the stakes are even higher.

Citytv’s “Canada’s Got Talent” has increased its top prize to $1 million, and one of its celebrity judges says that will be life-changing money for the lucky winner.

Comedian, actress and writer Lilly Singh says the million-dollar season puts a lot of pressure not just on the contestants, but also on the judges who will scrutinize more than 100 musical, dance, comedy and novelty acts.
