Canadian Representatives at Miss World. It began in 1951 as a special prelude to the Festival of Britain, and today, Miss World is one of the most recognized brand names on the planet. From Astrid to Agbani, from Antigone to Azra, from Aneta to Aishwarya, Miss World is a major figure during her yearlong reign, receiving international travel, incalculable exposure, and the joyous opportunity to work with “Beauty with a Purpose”. 1, record 1, English, - Miss%20World%20Canada

Moreover, if we went for a simple criterion such as "poor reading" or even "poor reading in relation to intelligence" there was the risk that we would miss "compensated" dyslexic(those who by the age of 10 were reading adequately) and pick up those who were poor readers because of lack of opportunity and not because they were dyslexic. 2, record 2, English, - compensated%20dyslexic
