7. Canadian Screen Awards
New to the list
Toronto
Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the 2022 Canadian Screen Awards honored Canadian film, television, and digital media production from 2021. This year's winners were announced over six days through a series of livestreamed, in-studio shows, culminating with a pre-taped broadcast that aired on CBC on April 10. The show incorporated live-acceptance speeches and featured multi-award-winning sketch comedy troupe TallBoyz (Guled Abdi, Vance Banzo, Tim Blair, and Franco Nguyen, pictured), who opened and closed the ceremony broadcast—and even took home two awards. Television series and films honored with the most nominations included CBC/HBO dramedy Sort Of, CBC's Pretty Hard Cases, CTV's Wynonna Earp, Night Raiders, and Scarborough. The 11th Canadian Screen Awards in 2023 will feature gender-neutral performance categories for the first time ever. Next: April 2023
