Lil Wayne's Tour Dates In Canada Canceled
By Miles Bennett ♦ Published 08/18/2009

Lil WayneLil Wayne scrapped his tour stop in Vancouver on Wednesday (August 17) "due to circumstances beyond [the organizer's] control," the promoter said in a statement.

The rapper and others on the America's Most Wanted Tour were all set to perform in the Canadian city this week, then last minute, things were canceled.

Outside of the brief statement, no further explanation was given. His Edmonton show, scheduled for Thursday (August 18), was also canceled. According to the The Vancouver Sun, word is Weezy and his crew got held up at the Canadian border. However, nothing has been confirmed.

Update: In a statement given to MTV from Wayne's camp, they explain that an unnamed illness caused the date's cancellations.

"Lil Wayne, due to illness, was advised by his doctors to cancel the Young Money Presents: America's Most Wanted Music Festival tour stops in Western Canada," the statement said. "The tour, headlined by Lil Wayne featuring Young Jeezy, Soulja Boy, Pleasure P and Jeremih, was scheduled to come through Vancouver and Edmonton on August 17th and 18th. Wayne, his band and crew arrived in Canada with full intention of performing but were forced to cancel the dates due to doctor-mandated rest. Young Money Presents America's Most Wanted Music Festival will continue their tour routing as planned and extends an apology to the fans for the cancellation."

Weezy last performed in Vancouver in January.

The cancellation isn't the first time he had to cancel shows in the country. In June 2008, a show in Toronto and a scheduled appearance in Montreal were cancelled "due to unknown circumstances."

It's unclear at press time, if these dates will be rescheduled.
