Cheques were presented to a number of charities: SHARP Foundation, Children's Wish Foundation, HIV Peer Support, AGAPE Manor, AIDS Calgary, the Sandra Casey Fund and the Canadian Liver Foundation to a toll of $35,000.

At the end of the night, the newly elected Emperor and Empress were announced: Joey Hailey and Bianca LaBouche. At the Victory Brunch the next morning, they proclaimed the reign of "Hungarian Sausage and Italian Meatballs," along with the theme for their Coronation next year, "Tea with Musolini".
