After entering her very first beauty pageant, 22 year-old Camille Munro has become the first Saskatchewan woman to win the Miss World Canada Crown in 50 years.
“I just started crying. It just was the first reaction that happened. But it wasn’t sad tears, it was tears of joy and shock,” said Munro of hearing her name called at the finals in Richmond B.C.
She said she is thrilled at the opportunity the pageant provided to represent the province, and her home city of Regina.
“I feel like I’ve done something really awesome for the province. I’m proud to say I can bring it back, and that Regina and Saskatchewan as a whole can now be on the map in another way that they haven’t been for 50 years,” she said.
