Received my letter in Italy yesterday (can't believe it's here but some haven't received it in Canada yet??)
Successful application!!
For those interested in stats: Ranked 5/64 in committee 2B. This was my second time applying and my research proposal was nearly the same. My score the first time was 2.91 and this time 4.95 (the cutoff was 4.30). And honestly, the only significant differences was that I was submitting my thesis soon and was about to take up a one-year postdoc at the time of application. I'm in history with only one peer-reviewed article in a good journal, but lots of conference papers, invited talks, and some curatorial and public engagement stuff. SSHRC-funded for MA and PhD, which I did in the UK. A bunch of additional studentships (cause UK is stupid expensive for international students) and smaller research/travel awards. I'm absolutely thrilled with my results this year, but have also learned how arbitrary this process can be...
Best of luck to you all, be kind to yourselves!!

Turning down an A for a Vanier! Hold tight high-scoring B holders and wait-listers..

Edit: Committee 5

Finally got my letter!! Category A with 18.3/20. Needless to say, I am in shock in the best way possible. This forum was a super helpful source of information and support so I'd like to thank all the people who answered my questions And of course, best of luck to those who will be reapplying next year.

Got my letter with an award in the C category! This means—from what I understand—that if I want to take my award to a UK school (which is what I indicated in my application) then I get the award for the B category. But if I stayed in Canada, then I would be eligible for a CGS award. My score was 14.4/20 and it was my first time applying. I think I might be in shock right now.

Successful! Category B, first round. Could not be happier!

Finally am successful--category B. Third time out. I feel like I might faint.
 
Good luck to all who are waiting!

They're definitely on their way!! I'm in Ottawa and I received my letter today (successful! Yipee!!).
 
Best of luck to eveybody!

I applied directly to SSHRC and just received a letter that I've been forward to Ottawa! Wooooo
