Juno award-winning R&B singer Deborah Cox hopes her recognition at Canada’s Walk of Fame gala will help inspire other Black musicians.

Cox was among the Canadians recognized at the Saturday event for excellence in fields that included humanitarianism, entrepreneurship, sports, entertainment and philanthropy.
