This was not the first time for Amelinckx to fly to Canada for pageantry. She went to “The Big White North” late last year as part of the Aces and Queens pageant camp’s “boot camp,” serving as one of the mentors to those who underwent the pageant prep crash course.
At the end of the competition, Kristel David took home the Miss Filipinas Worldwide crown, while international pageant veteran Jessica Cianchino was proclaimed as Miss Filipinas Global. Both ladies will represent Canada in the 2025 Miss Universe Phillippines pageant.
