U2's latest effort continues to sizzle on the Canadian album charts.

"No Line on the Horizon" was locked in at No. 1 for a third straight week, selling 12,000 copies, according to figures compiled by Nielsen SoundScan.

It has now racked up close to 100,000 in sales since its release.

Meanwhile, Francophone singer Ima's new set "La Vida" had the highest debut of the week, checking in at No. 2 on sales of 10,000.

Johnny Reid's "Dance With Me" (9,000) hung on to the No. 3 spot, Kelly Clarkson's "All I Ever Wanted" slipped two positions to No. 4, and Mario Pelchat and Michel Legrand's self-titled disc came up three to No. 5.

The "Twilight" soundtrack got a huge lift from the DVD debut, moving from No. 22 to No. 6, while Lady GaGa went the other way, dropping three notches to No. 7.

Rounding out the top 10 was Nickelback's "Dark Horse" at No. 8, Jason Mraz's "We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things" at No. 9, and Kings of Leon's "Only by the Night" at No. 10.

In the U.S., Kelly Clarkson remained in first, followed by U2 in second, the "Twilight" soundtrack in third, The-Dream's "Love vs. Money" came in fourth, and Lady GaGa in fifth.
