Subject Author Date for the miss teen canada international pageant..why does it make you laugh? (NT) Patricia 01:17:42 05/22/09 Fri Becase it says she is entering the Miss Teen Canada World pageant - Not MCI - But this confusion is to be expected MCI decided to pick the same date as MTCW (NT) funny 12:13:51 05/22/09 Fri I thought Miss Teen Canada Int'l and Sylvia Stark is involved with Teddy Bears of Hope. But she's in the MTCW Pageant? Pretty girl though and wish her well in the pageant (NT) -- Gary, 20:13:06 05/22/09 Fri Actually it says she is entering Miss Teen Canada World International so....I guess they were covering all bases, who knows, they rarely even remeber to pput the exention on the pageant name and usually shorten it to just Miss Canada or Miss Teen Canada and we all know that is wrong LOL. MCI picked the same date as MTCW ? Are you sure it wasnt the other way around? Or coincidence? MCI has had thier pageant iin August for-ever and every other wanna be event seems to pick the same date, there is the globe 'event' on the same weekend or there-abouts, the galaxy event on the same weekend, and I am pretty sure I read about another event the same weekend,....I think MCi just wanted a bit of individuality and it seems didnt make it. I am pretty sure the date had been set since before the last event even took place in August 08. (not everything is a conspiracy) (NT) -- Christi, 21:57:27 05/22/09 Fri Anyone know when MCI is this year???? It is late May and we don't know. Haven't seen a date for Globe yet either. Galaxy's dates were set and on their site way back last October (August 12-15, 2009). Can anyone provide the other dates? (NT) -- Wondering?, 12:24:12 05/25/09 Mon Is there a Miss Canada International pageant that leads to the real Miss International pageant in Japan, not the one in Chicago, Illinois? Also, can anyone explain to me why there is a pageant called Miss International in Chicago? Wouldn't there be issues with the real Miss International pageant? (NT) -- website?, 12:53:52 06/08/09 Mon There is a cdn directorship in the works for the real one. Apparently, the one in Chicago received a stop work order from the big one in Japan (NT) -- Future director, 19:50:21 06/08/09 Mon Miss International Canada sends to Miss International (the *real* one) or at least they used to, I don't beleive they exist anymore and the Canadian delegate is selected 'at large' via BOC (confirmation here please).The Miss International in the USA -- Christi, 14:27:09 06/09/09 Tue The Canadian reps for the Mrs Intl in the US for the past 2 years were from Canada. Before that, there have been a few from the US. 2 years ago, the Miss delegate was from Canada - other years, I have no idea. I don't think any of them ever competed twice in either teen miss or mrs divisions (NT) -- Follower, 18:32:45 06/09/09 Tue 2007 was from Kansas. I was close. *shrug* and the delegate I am speaking about was not in the last 2 years. In my opinion, that sort of pageant, along with the Galaxy event and a lot of the other events that are not 'authentic' international pageants. (NT) -- Christi, 23:37:18 06/09/09 Tue actually christi i wrote u and asked sylvia so this would not happen and it was annouced in the media prior and booked way before even MUC annouced thier pageant. I asked you and MCG because I think it is stupid to have 2 pageants running around the same time. And they sometimes call my pageant the national or international verse the regional I have had no issue with any articles out of the 40+ we have had most even get the - in it Yes they will say Miss Teen Canada sometimes in the heading but world shows up somewhere. I know they make mistakes but again when you have the same date it is confusing which is why I asked everyone so we could both have a successful pageant and not flood the city with pageant girls u know I did not follow MCI (NT) Michelle 02:30:15 05/23/09 Sat Did you announce your date last august when MCI picked thiers? Michelle, MCI's date was chosen before you even started MTCW, again no conspiracy. We coonsidered changing our date after you announced yours but a lot of our materials were printed, people had already booked time off of work (a lot of the volunteers use thier annual vacation time to come to MCI to volunteer). We decided against it due to the cost and inconvenience to our people. Again, no conspiracy, coincidence. The goal was to get it out of August for a number of reasons, other events was just part of it. MCI will decide the dates for next year's pageant at this years pageant, just like they did last year, before the crowning, while all the volunteers and board members are together, they won't announce it until they are ready though, but I can assure you the date selection has nothing to do with you. I am certain MCI would like to avoid the confusion just the same as you but at this point it is what it is. (NT) -- Christi, 10:32:31 05/23/09 Sat That is all fine Christi but why then in the email to me you said it is in August and on the phone with Sylvia she said the same. It is just unfortunate. It really does not help either pageants and annoys the media and the public in my mind. You would never see MWC and MUC the same week. When planning I asked you and Mias when your pageant was so they would be spread out. So I can not understand how you had this booked. I am not saying you did not - but why would you not tell me in Jan That is why I asked, I made a point to. Your exact words in the email click in I posted it. I am not going to cry over spilled milk. so what ever. It is done. Michelle 11:40:25 05/23/09 Sat " I can tell you the national has been the same time since the pageant started, third week end of august because it usually interferes with my husbands birthday on the 29th" Ok slightly misleading but I didnt state that it was being held in August this year, we were keeping that on the DL for a reason, (click in) -- Christi, 20:08:46 05/23/09 Sat I hope there are no hard feelings between Christi and Michelle. I wish luck to both pageants this July. Sadly, pageants aren't covered much by the mainstream media anymore and even if both of these teen pageants were held on separate dates, there still won't be much or any media coverage. Why is this?! (NT) -- G, 20:37:11 05/23/09 Sat No hard feelings on my side, my friends arent disposable, sometimes they become distan but she knows I wish her no ill will. As for the media, if I could answer that I'd be rich!!! Not reallyy but it is a question no one can really answer. Canada just doesnt seem to care is all. Pageants are not a big deal there, Maybe its our temperment, who knows. No one gets press in the pageant world (unless its negative). Look at Natalie...my god she won Miss Universe and barely a mention. Other countries issue stamps and holidays in honour of their girls who win MU and MW, in Canada its like 'oh, cool' and go about your day. Every pageant will get a little local coverage, none will ever get on tv no matter what they promise except for a local or ethnic station, but never national coverage, those days are gone. Those who are in it now arre in it purely for thhe fun of being in it. Anyone bitten by the pageant bug knows what I am talking about :) (NT) -- Christi, 21:22:23 05/23/09 Sat Christi, I totally agree with you and it's so sad that Canada doesn't seem to care about pageants anymore. I'm glad you've been such a good sport about this same date-thing and you really do show good sportsmanship, which I'm in awe from reading your postings. I'm disheartened how mean and nasty messages can be on pageant message boards. (NT) -- G, 10:36:28 05/24/09 Sun No Worries here, for me I was upset only that I made an attempt to avoid the situation in everyones best interest in mind. All is well. (NT) Michelle 12:17:40 05/24/09 Sun
