The 13th annual Genie Awards were held on November 22, 1992, to honour Canadian films released in late 1991 and 1992. They were dominated by David Cronenberg's Naked Lunch, Jean-Claude Lauzon's Léolo, and Jean Beaudin's Being at Home with Claude."French-Canadian films steal Genie show". The Globe and Mail, October 14, 1992.

The academy now recognized that its annual ceremony was not attracting audiences in Quebec. It worked with Radio-Canada to produce a French-language special, hosted by Quebec journalist René Homier-Roy, that aired immediately after the main broadcast and presented viewers with film clips and winner and nominee interviews.Maria Topalovich, And the Genie Goes To...: Celebrating 50 Years of the Canadian Film Awards. Stoddart Publishing, 2000. {{ISBN|0-7737-3238-1}}. pp. 49-51.

The ceremony was held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in Toronto."Canadian films in the spotlight". The Globe and Mail, November 21, 1992. Actor John Candy was slated to host the event, but he pulled out in a dispute over advance advertising which he had not approved and which he perceived as making fun of his weight. Actor Leslie Nielsen stepped in as host and received a standing ovation.
