Scope of Competition
Welcome to the 2025 Canada: My Country competition. This annual event celebrates the rich diversity of people and places across our nation.
This year, we want to showcase the varied landscapes that shape our national identity. From the Atlantic coast to the Pacific coast to our Far North, your submitted photographs should bring our regional flavours and local pride to life.
Equally important are the stories of the people who call this land home. Photos of immigrant families starting new lives, school children growing together, workers driving local economies, and senior citizens passing down traditions, all reflect the fabric our country.
Images depicting individuals experiencing homelessness, infirmity, or people in crisis will not be accepted. We consider the exploitation of the misfortune and suffering of others for the sake photography demonstrates a disregard for the well-being of our fellow individuals.
