The ACTRA Awards were first presented in 1972 to celebrate excellence in Canada's television and radio industries.[1] Organized and presented by the Association of Canadian Television and Radio Artists,[1] which represented performers, writers and broadcast journalists, the Nellie statuettes were presented annually until 1986.[2] They were the primary national television award in Canada until 1986, when they were taken over by the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television to create the new Gemini Awards,[3] although ACTRA continued to present Nellies in radio categories.[4]
The ACTRA Awards were then revived in 2003 as a local film industry award, separately presented by each of ACTRA's regional chapters to honour performances in local film and television production, since expanded to incorporate web series and video games.[1]
