26 year old model Elena Semikina from Toronto was crowned as the new Miss Universe Canada 2010 in a pageant held on June 14 at the Metro Toronto Convention Center. She was crowned by the reigning Miss Universe Canada 2009, Mariana Valente. Also present at the event was Miss Universe 2005, Natalie Glebova.



The 1st runner-up was Aleksandra Malkin, while the 2nd runner-up was the Cree community representative, Ashley Callingbull. Neda Derakhshanfar and Zarah Al-Aubiydy completed the Top 5 finalists.

Elena Semikina stands 1.86m tall and she will represent her country at the Miss Universe 2010 beauty pageant on August 23 to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

As a new trend in beauty pageants, this year edition of Miss Universe Canada was not free of controversy. Yemeni-born Maria Al-Masani made headlines when declaring she would cover herself up during the swimsuit competition; then, newscasts had a field day when contestant Tiffany Munro linked poverty and malnutrition with Africa; and finally, Sophie Froment, from Montreal, was disqualified after it was discovered she shot a video campaign -nude- for a website that encourages extramarital affairs.
