Skenario Terbaik (Canadian Screen Award)

Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television mempersembahkan sebuah penghargaan tahunan untuk skenario terbaik untuk sebuah film Kanada. Dari 1980 sampai 2012, penghargaan tersebut dipersembahkan sebagai bagian dari Penghargaan Genie; pada 2013, penghargaan tersebut dipersembahkan sebagai bagian dari Canadian Screen Awards.

Presentasi penghargaan tersebut tak selalu konsisten — dalam beberapa tahun, sebuah penghargaan tunggal untuk Skenario Terbaik dipersembahkan, sementara pada tahun lainnya, penghargaan dipisah dan dipersembahkan untuk Skenario Asli Terbaik dan Skenario Adaptasi Terbaik.
