TIFF-CBC Films Screenwriter Award

The TIFF-CBC Films Screenwriter Award is a Canadian award, jointly presented by the Toronto International Film Festival and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to foster the production of new screenplays by emerging filmmakers. The winner of the award receives a $15,000 prize and various mentorship opportunities to assist in the production of their film.

Unlike most TIFF-related awards, it is not presented at the festival itself, but in an independent announcement in the late winter or early spring each year.
