Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction

Last updated

The Hilary Weston Writers' Trust Prize for Nonfiction is a Canadian literary award, presented annually by the Writers' Trust of Canada to the best work of non-fiction by a Canadian writer.

Contents

Canada's most lucrative non-fiction prize, the winner receives a prize of CA$ 60,000 and all finalists receive CA$ 5,000. [1] [2]

Sponsorship history

First established in 1997, the award's original corporate sponsor was Viacom. Pearson Canada, an educational book publishing company, took over the award in 1999, and Nereus Financial, a stock brokerage, became the sponsor from 2006 to 2008. After Nereus dropped its sponsorship, the award had no corporate sponsor until 2011, [3] when philanthropist and former Lieutenant Governor of Ontario Hilary Weston was announced as the award's new sponsor. [1]

Prior to Weston's patronage of the award, the prize was CA$ 15,000 for the winner and CA$ 2,000 for the finalists.
