Submit Your Nominees

Image: "Going Down the Road" (1970; Dir: Donald Shebib)

This site exists to promote Canadian films, determine a roster of the country's finest, and to explore the films on that list. In the end, the best that a list like this can do is to introduce people to films they may not have seen, and to help encourage the remembrance of outstanding work produced by our filmmakers.

Until midnight (AST) on August 31, 2014 we'll be accepting nominations for films to be included on the list. All genres are accepted and film lovers from countries outside of Canada are also invited to take part.

TO NOMINATE YOUR SELECTIONS:
Without additional remarks, please submit in the comments section of this post as many titles as you feel belong. You can nominate additional films at any time until closing, but please don't nominate the same film twice.

In the fall, we'll hold a vote to see which films will be included and in what order. Please help spread the word and share this opportunity on social media and other outlets. We look forward to receiving your nominees.
