The 62nd annual Miss Universe® Canada Pageant will be held at the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts (Bluma Appel Theatre) in Toronto. 60 delegates from across Canada will be in Toronto from May 18th to May 26th and will compete for the title of Miss Universe® Canada 2013 awarded on Saturday, May 25th, 2013. The reigning Miss Universe® Canada, Sahar Biniaz will assist in crowning her successor before a live audience.
