New Brunswick owned the technology podium last year.

The Vancouver-based tech site techvibes announced its startup awards on Friday and the Radian6-Q1 Labs-Gerry Pond grouping raked in the silverware.

Marcel LeBrun, Chris Newton, and Chris Ramsey of Radian6 captured the award for Canadian Entrepreneur of 2011, based obviously on the sale of their company to salesforce.com for about $326 million. Radian6 also won the Most Significant Acquisition Award.

Gerry Pond, an original investor in Radian6 and Q1 Labs (which sold out to IBM) was named the Canadian Angel of 2011.

Another Maritime company, GoInstant of Halifax, was named a runner-up in the Best New Canadian Startup category.

Congrats to all.
