2023 Canada Winter Games - Nominating Torchbearers

The call for nominations to become a torchbearer in the upcoming 2023 Canada Games Torch Relay is now open!

The Torch Relay will visit over 20 communities across PEI and engage with local residents through a series of Torch Relay events and community celebrations, with various Torchbearers carrying the torch.

After arriving in PEI and travelling from tip-to-tip, the torch will make its way to Eastlink Centre on February 18, 2023, for the Opening Ceremony of the 2023 Canada Winter Games, where it will light the cauldron and officially ignite the competition.

Canada Game is looking for outstanding individuals to represent their community on the national stage with the honour of carrying the historical Roly McLenahan Canada Games Torch in their communities.

Nominate an outstanding community member to be a torchbearer when our community celebrates the 2023 Canada Games Torch Relay! Get the details here: 2023canadagames.ca/torch-relay


Please submit your application or nomination by July 15, 2022. Successful nominees will be contacted afterwards.
