The Women in Music Canada Honours program is designed to celebrate and support women and gender diverse Canadian innovators and creators who have outstanding success in their field in the eligibility year (December 2024 through December 2025 for annual based categories). 

Nominations must be submitted via the WIMCanada nomination form by the deadline (Friday, November 28, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. PST). Nominations may be submitted by the potential recipient or another Canadian colleague. Only one nomination is required to be considered. If multiple nominations are received for the same individual, they will be combined into a single nomination for review by the jury.

Recipients will be announced at the Women in Music Canada Honours event on March 5, 2026.  

WIM Canada values diversity, equity and inclusion, and welcomed applications from innovators and creators  from diverse backgrounds.
