Every single person associated with Miss World Canada should be ashamed of themselves for the ridiculous so called pageant that was put on on May 16th, 2015 at the Queen Elizabeth theatre. It was a mockery of beauty pageants and an embarrassment to all Canadians. Those associated with this contest (that in fact is really no contest at all), should speak out, and speak out loudly. There was a time when a truly pretty girl who is smart could enter a pageant such as this and have a fair chance at winning, and winning nice prizes etc. Those days are gone. Now…. everyone is just on the take, and a lot of innocent young girls and their families have to pay the price. Utterly disgusting
