I’m working really hard to build back my strength, but touring can be very difficult even when you’re 100%.”Dion announced the news in a caption of a photo listing the full list of tour dates that were canceled, including shows in France, Belgium, Denmark, Poland, and the UK. “It’s not fair to you to keep postponing the shows, and even though it breaks my heart, it’s best that we cancel everything now until I’m really ready to be back on stage again. I want you all to know, I’m not giving up… and I can’t wait to see you again!” Dion concluded her post.
