List of Canadian Comedy Awards ceremonies

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Founded in 1999, the Canadian Comedy Awards have a mandate "to recognize, celebrate and promote Canadian achievements in comedy at home and abroad."[1] The awards ceremonies are known for placing "gags over glamour", with quick wit and improvisational skills showcased by hosts, presenters and recipients.[2] From 2002 to 2015, the awards ceremony was held as part of the Canadian Comedy Awards Festival, which featured dozens of comedy events.[3]
