The Canadian Screen Award for Best Supporting Performance in a Comedy Film is an annual award, presented by the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television as part of the Canadian Screen Awards program, to honour the best supporting performance in a comedy film.

After the academy announced in August 2022 that it was discontinuing its former gendered awards for Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress,^[1] they presented only a single award for Best Supporting Performance in a Film at the 11th Canadian Screen Awards in 2023.^[2] The organization subsequently decided to increase the number of acting awards again, with the new awards separated by genre of film instead of performer gender; beginning with the 12th Canadian Screen Awards in 2024, distinct awards will now be presented for Best Supporting Performance in a Comedy Film and Best Supporting Performance in a Drama Film.^[3]
