Шаблон:Infobox award The 3rd Canadian Film Awards were presented on April 22, 1951, to honour achievements in Canadian film. The ceremony was hosted by Mary Pickford.

This year, the selection process was changed; specialized judging panels assessed theatrical, non-theatrical and amateur entries, and judges were given more detailed instructions. Due to budget constraints, the physical prizes were printed certificates.

At the dinner before the awards presentation, Fred Dillon of the Canadian Motion Picture Distributors Association presented Dominion archivist Dr. William Kaye Lamb with a letter from Thomas Edison. In the letter, dated May 1, 1894, Edison thanked Ottawa businessmen George Holland and Andrew Holland for successfully using his Kinetoscope (the precursor of the projector) to exhibit a film. Pickford, a director of the Edison Pioneers, received a copy of the letter for presentation to the Edison Museum in New Jersey.
