How to download ember canary version using bower

I want to use the query-params feature in Ember. However, to do this, I need to download the canary version of ember. I am using bower for package management. How do I update my bower.json file in order to donwload latest canary version of Ember. Relevant parts of my bower.json file look as below:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "sass-bootstrap": "~2.3.0",
    "requirejs": "~2.1.4",
    "modernizr": "~2.6.2",
    "jquery": "~1.9.1",
    "requirejs-text": "~2.0.7",
    "ember": "http://builds.emberjs.com/canary/ember.js",
    "ember-prod": "http://builds.emberjs.com/canary/ember.prod.js",
    "datatables": "~1.9.4",
    "lodash": "~1.3.1",
    "font-awesome": "~3.2.1",
    "moment": "~2.1.0",
    "d3": "~3.2.6",
    "ember-model": "~0.0.7",
    "jquery-ui": "~1.10.3",
    "typeahead.js": "~0.10.1"
  },
  "devDependencies": {},
  "resolutions": {
    "jquery": ">=1.8.0",
  }
}

However, "bower install ember" does not show me following:

Unable to find a suitable version for ember, please choose one:
1) ember#* which resolved to e-tag:8ee2c1ef5 and has ember-table-shim#0.2.0, nvwebapp as dependants
2) ember#~1.0 which resolved to 1.0.1 and has ember-model#0.0.11 as dependants

If I select the first resolution, and then go to app/bower_components/ember/index.js file, following can be seen at the top of the file:

/*!
 * @overview  Ember - JavaScript Application Framework
 * @copyright Copyright 2011-2014 Tilde Inc. and contributors

 *            See https://raw.github.com/emberjs/ember.js/master/LICENSE
 * @version   1.4.1+pre.af87bd20
 */

So, it seems that this is downloading version 1.4.1, however the latest canary version is 1.6.0.

How should I update my bower.json file to get the latest canary version?

Thanks in advance..!!

Source: http://www.ember-cli.com/user-guide/#using-canary-build-instead-of-release

Using canary build instead of release

In bower.json instead of a version number use:

"ember": "components/ember#canary",

And, following dependencies add resolutions:

"resolutions": {
  "ember": "canary"
}

This can also be applied to Ember Data:

"ember-data": "components/ember-data#canary",

And, adding to resolutions:

"resolutions": {
  "ember-data": "canary"
}

Wipe your vendor directory clean then run npm install && bower install.

You can enable the canary build by specifying just the build number, like this - "ember": "1.4.0-beta.2"

I am using beta.2 for query params. You also need to explicitly enable this feature.
