As the Canadian Festival representative, in consultation with the Canadian Cannes Advisory Board, The Globe and Mail submits a nomination list comprised of Canada’s industry leaders. Cannes Lions makes the final selection to consider representative nominations along with a balance of agency, network, holding company, independents, gender and diversity.
