This past Sunday the Aurora Awards (which I always think of as 'The Canadian SF Awards') were held at Keycon 25 in Winnepeg. I'm posting a list of the winners here, although I must credit Robert J. Sawyer's blog for the information.

This year I am thrilled that Nalo Hopkinson won for The New Moon's Arms.
This was Nalo's first win for best novel, and I think it's long overdue. A big Congrats to Nalo, and all the other winners.
