Canada is recognized as a major player in film, television and
interactive digital media production. The growth of Canada's
multibillion dollar production industry is attributable to our
high-standard facilities, competent workforce, physical and
cultural proximity to the United States, as well as to very
favourable economic factors. These include lower location and
production costs than in the U.S. and Europe, a good exchange rate
and advantageous government tax incentives and funding
policies.
At Heenan Blaikie, we know the advantages associated with
producing in Canada, including the various tax incentives provided
by both federal and provincial governments.
Producing in Canada, our guide to Canadian film,
television and interactive digital media incentive programs,
provides an overview of some of the available incentives and the
criteria that must be satisfied to qualify for them.
