Hey Canada, what're you at?

Tom Power is back to do a virtual check-in with Canadians across the country — from his living room with his nan blanket.

"What're you at?" is Tom's friendly Newfoundland way of asking, "How are you?" In this episode, Tom catches up with Avril Lavigne, Alessia Cara, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee and a couple of front-line workers.

Tom has a special surprise in store for ballet dancing powerhouse couple Heather Ogden and Guillaume Côté.

Avril Lavigne

Famous singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne drops by to chat with Tom about what she's been up to. Avril just released her re-recorded single We Are Warriors in support of front-line workers battling COVID-19.

Did you know Appa from Kim's Convenience is a cosplay geek? Well, the actor who portrays him is! Paul Sun-Hyung Lee makes Tom jealous with his home-crafted proton pack.

Check out the name tag on Paul's Ghostbusters costume — Appa ain't afraid of no ghosts!
