They didn't cancel to play; they canceled to show up for their "Best New Artist" nomination. Lame. Amy Winehouse sure as shit isn't showing up!

 

Anyhow, here's what they say:

 

We offer sincere apologies and regrets to our fans that we had to cancel
our performances in Toronto and Montreal due to our nomination for Best New
Artist for MTV Video Music Awards which requires us to be Las Vegas on the
8th and 9th. We hate cancelling shows - but we hope you understand that this
is an exciting opportunity for us and we promise to make it up to you. We
are working on getting back to Canada before the end of -07
