The 23rd Canadian Film Awards were held on October 1, 1971 to honour achievements in Canadian film. The ceremony, which had been returned to banquet format, was hosted by actor Leslie Nielsen and broadcaster Charlotte Gobeil.

For this year's competition, 149 films were entered, but Quebec independent filmmakers refused to submit their films, citing "lack of interest" and taking issue with the insufficient representation of Montreal in the awards committee. The result was that, with the exception of films from the National Film Board of Canada, all awarded films were English-language.[1]
