Camille Munro (born September 6, 1990) is a Canadian dancer and beauty pageant titleholder. In 2013, she became the first woman from Saskatchewan to be named Miss World Canada in 50 years.[1] The competition took place in Richmond, British Columbia.[2] There were 35 contestants at the pageant, but Munro was the only one from Saskatchewan.[3] She said that she planned to use her crown to "really engage Canadians in what's in Saskatchewan and let them know that we're not just a cold province in the winter."[4] She also planned to spend the year practicing humanitarianism.[5] Her win secured her entry into the Miss World 2013 pageant in Jakarta, Indonesia that September where she made the top 20 out of 127 contestants. [6] Also that year, Munro graduated from the University of Regina with a bachelor's degree in human justice.[7] As part of her program, she did an internship with the United Way of Canada.[8] Munro teaches dance to young offenders who are female.[9]
