The Sheridan Auditorium of Sudbury Secondary School was filled to capacity as 40 of Northern Ontario's most exceptional young women participated in a stellar production of the 12th Anniversary of the Miss North Ontario Regional Canada Pageant for 2017.  

The judges choice to be the next ambassador for the North was 16 year old Emma Morrison from Chapleau.  

First runner-up was Stephanie Photopoulos from Eastern Region, second runner-up was Carly Judd representing Sudbury District, third runner-up was Kaylea Smith from Coldwater, and Thunder Bay's Healey Gardiner was the fourth runner-up.

The delegates raised an impressive $18,000 for the Official Charity of Miss North Ontario, NOFCC Northern Ontario Families of Children with Cancer bringing their total donation since 2006 to $246,000.

Three representatives from the Algoma region also participated in the 2017 Miss North Ontario pageant – Kallie Boucher (Algoma District), Lauren Moore (Sault Ste. Marie), and Lily Elgie (Searchmont).

Lily Elgie won the Pre-Pageant Award for Attitude, Effort, Meeting deadlines, and Overall impression.

"Miss North Ontario was an amazing experience!  It has showed me so much about myself and was a life changing experience that I look forward to doing again in the future," Elgie said.

Lauren Moore, the Sault Ste. Marie contestant, placed as a Top 8 Finalist for Talent and an overall Top 10 Semifinalist. 

Kallie Boucher, the Algoma District delegate, was selected by both the Miss World Canada and Miss Universe Canada National Directors to be a Northern Ontario ambassador at those events.
