From CTV, who can’t contain their adoration for their own show:

Recap by Reality TV Calendar, who aren’t quite as thrilled:

• Canadian Idol: The Top Nine Perform
  “Last week on Canadian Idol, the Idols sang to number one hits but instead, the night was full of misses. There were some surprises that came from Dwight and Matt, then there disappointing performances from early favourites Greg and Carly. For Carly, this landed her in the bottom 3, accompanied by Khalila and Mila. To my disappointment, we said goodbye to one of my favourites, Mila Miller and her fro lightning. “
