Not to be outdone, prominent leaders for Vancouver businesses, social scene and charity organizations were out in wearing their finest for the event, with a packed house arriving for the crowning ceremony on May 9th.

In its second year being hosted in Vancouver, the organization Chairman Ike Lalji spoke to how these young women have the ability to change the future. The Miss World Canada team ensures that they stay focused on a positive and success filled path in life through their Development Program that encourages them in the areas of personal growth, empowerment, career skills and more. The 2013 delegates showcased their devotion and eagerness to be great leaders by raising over $64,000 for their partner Variety – the Children’s Charity.
No one can deny the contestants’ passion and energy,said Chu,
I had the privilege working with these talented young ladies for 9 days!! These girls truly worked hard and came together as a team and supported one another that was truly amazing – all while knowing only one would take away the crown.
And that special young woman was Camille Munro. Through all the photo shoots, rehearsals, sponsor events and overall long days, Munro’s consistency stood out as star to the team. This star quality was obviously shone through to the judges who crowned her Miss World Canada 2013.
Chu went on to say, I’m so proud of the ladies and wish them all the best of luck with which ever path they take. Congratulation Camille!!! We know you will make Canada proud.
