The Top 25 Canadian Immigrant Awards is an annual campaign by Canadian Immigrant magazine that recognizes outstanding work by immigrants who "have come to Canada and have made a positive difference living in the country."[1]
Overview[edit]
First launched by Canadian Immigrant in 2009, the program takes place online and nominations are open to all Canadians. The program is divided into three phases: nominations, voting and winners announcements. At the start of each year, Canadian Immigrant invites nominations based on a variety of criteria, which range from contribution to community to professional accomplishments. The award is open to immigrants from all walks of life, be it a community advocate or volunteer, a successful entrepreneur or a cultural icon. A judging panel composed of leaders who work within the immigrant or ethnic communities determine the shortlist on which the public vote.[2]
The winners are featured online and in a special issue each year. Past winners include Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games CEO John Furlong, CBC News anchor Ian Hanomansing, Canada's 26th Governor General Adrienne Clarkson,[3] entrepreneur/philanthropist Aditya Jha[4] and mental health activist Loizza Aquino.
