The reality of the current environment in this industry as a part of Canada’s business landscape is very compelling. Filmed productions are increasing, and the Canadian government has very publicly stated and realized that it recognizes the revenue and tax benefits to Canada of this industry. They clearly have stepped up to the bar and show that commitment by increasing in the past year tax credits in almost every major category , and at the same time implanting first time tax credits in other aspects of the industry, i.e. the new digital media and animation sectors .
