Nicole Dunsdon (born November 7, 1970) is a Canadian model and beauty pageant titleholder who was the last person to win the Miss Canada competition[1] before it was cancelled in 1992. The title was resurrected in 2009.
Dunsdon was born November 6, 1970. She is from Summerland, British Columbia.[2]
She graduated from Summerland Secondary School in 1988;[3] from the University of Alberta with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in 1994; and from the University of Western Ontario with a Master of Arts in Journalism the following year.[3]
Dunsdon was crowned Miss Canada in October 1991.[4] She also competed in Miss Universe 1992 in Bangkok, Thailand.[5]
Some women's organizations considered the Miss Canada pageant to encourage the sexual objectification of women. Dunsdon said in 2009 that there are beauty pageant contestants that meet the stereotypes; "egotistical, materialistic, slightly air-headed and ill-informed... but those ones never win."[6] She ascribed the cancellation of the pageant to the early 1990s recession, and expressed disappointment "that something as traditional as the Miss Canada pageant was touchable by the economic recession."[7]
As a journalist, she was one of the editors of Harold McGill's memoirs.[8] In addition to editing three books, Dunsdon worked with The Calgary Herald and The Globe and Mail before taking a position in communications with SAIT Polytechnic's Applied Research and Innovation Services department. Dunsdon later became a communications specialist at the University of Calgary's Schulich School of Engineering.[citation needed]
Dunsdon married Patrick Kryczka, and was the daughter-in-law of Joe Kryczka. They separated in 2015. Dunsdon and Kryczka's son Spencer played hockey for the Okotoks Oilers, and the Princeton Tigers.[9][10]
