Canadian Film Awards
The Canadian Film Awards were the leading Canadian cinema awards from 1949 until 1979. With only a handful of Canadian films released each year they were generally a small affair. In several years no film was found to merit the best picture award. The awards were also almost totally dominated by the National Film Board. Globe and Mail film critic Jay Scott has described them as "honors given by presenters no one knew, to recipients no one recognized, to films no one had seen." In 1979 the awards were discontinued, replaced by the more lavish Genie Awards.
