About The Canadian Regional Design Awards (The Redgees)

The Redgee Awards is the most comprehensive collection of work from Canada’s professional creative communities ever assembled. We’ve divided the country into eight zones, enabling winners to stake their claim as the best in their region. The best-of-the-best—the highest-scoring entry in each region—are highlighted with special recognition at the Canadian Regional Design Awards event in Toronto.
