Your Canadian Comics Awards Update

2008 Prix Bedelys Winners

* Prix Bedelys Quebec: Danger public, Leif Tande and PhlppGrrd (La Pasteque)
* Prix Bedelys d'Or: Ryad-sur-Seine, Frederik Peeters and Pierre Dragon (Gallimard)
* Prix Bedelys Jeunesse -- Ville de Montreal: Les P'tits diables, Vol. 6, Olivier Dutto (Soleil)

More information and even photos for these festival awards can be found here. My memory of the French-language, Canadian wards is that Michel Rabagliati's win some four or five years ago really put him the consciousness of a lot of comics fans for the first time. Granted, my memory is really, really poor.
