Here’s a quick update on the Canada Reads situation.

Canada Reads is CBC’s annual “one book to change the narrative” competition, featuring five Canadian books championed by celebrity advocates; it typically runs over several days with audience voting to determine the winner.[2][6]
The 2025 edition crowned Shayla Stonechild as the champion for A Two-Spirit Journey by Ma-Nee Chacaby, with coverage noting the final day vote and the winner’s announcement.[8][2]
Related CBC coverage and event updates are regularly posted on CBC Books and CBC News, including episode clips and finale highlights for each year’s competition.[9][2]
