[UPDATE: It may be useful to browse these old listings as many programs are annual, but for more current contests and competitions, head to the Youth Opportunities page.]
I'll write more on this soon, but I'm going to periodically be posting these links to opportunities for youth - particularly Ontario youth - which I seem to come across in my online travels.
