During the finals night which happened on May 25 at the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts in Toronto, it was Denise Garrido who was crowned with Riza standing at first runner up.

The organizers of the Miss Universe Canada pageant said that during the validation of the computerized scoring results (which occurs the following day), a typo was discovered in the top 5 entries, which significantly impacted the final results of the competition. It turned out that the eventual winner was actually Riza Santos and the woman who was crowned that night was only good for third runner up.

Beauties of Canada, the pageant's organizer offered their sincere apology to Denise Garrido and congratulated Riza for being the true winner. The latter will represent Canada in the Miss Universe 2013 pageant to be held later this year.

Riza, whose parents hail from Bataan and Bulacan, is a pageant veteran representing Canada in Miss Earth 2006 and Miss World 2011. She's 2nd Big Placer in PBB Celebrity Edition 2 in 2007 and also appeared in a few films in the country, most notable is Dobol Trobol with Vic Sotto and Comedy King Dolphy.

With Riza Santos being Miss Universe Canada 2013, we will see two Filipinas competing at the Miss Universe stage although wearing different sash. The question now is that who will fare better between Riza and Ariella Arida, Miss Universe Philippines 2013?
