On January 10, the Vancouver critics gave out their awards for the best in Canadian filmmaking. Separate from their annual awards for general film excellence, these are only for films made by Canadians. Topping their list, winning both the award for Best Canadian Film and the Best British Columbian film (hometown province likely helps), Hello Destroyer was the big winner with four. Werewolf came in second with two. Note that none of the nominees in these categories are Oscar contenders, so this will have exactly zero impact on the Oscars themselves.
