CAVCO certification, CRTC rules, Telefilm and provincial tax-credit programs, and the policy that shapes what gets made.
Policy & funding Analysis
Read this as a status check for producers and broadcasters: the headline rates exist as CRTC policy direction, but Minister Miller's June review means no CPE cheque is owed on those percentages yet.
Policy & funding Analysis
Filed against the 2024 announcement because Red Acres has no later Telefilm update in our sources; this reads the round as the funding floor for Bavota and Springer's second feature, not as breaking news.
Policy & funding
This closes the CMF's role in its portion of a Heritage fund. By itself it says nothing about whether anything follows it.
Policy & funding
The dispute is over whether Canadian programming money arrives as an obligation on streamers or as government funding. The letter's signatories want the obligation kept.
Policy & funding
These are the fund's own measures of its results. A multiplier shows how much other money followed the CMF's, not whether the projects found audiences or repaid that activity.
Policy & funding
Both programs are limited in reach: the pilot is open to companies with $250,000 to $9,999,999 in five-year revenue, and the Indigenous support is one-time funding per company, with invitations going to companies funded through eligible CMF or Indigenous Screen Office programs from 2021 to 2026. Neither settles whether the funding continues.
Policy & funding
Seven priorities describe direction. The change already in effect is administration: the Indigenous Program now sits with the Indigenous Screen Office. Dollar shifts, if any, are not in this announcement.
Policy & funding
The geographic split is stark — 22 of 23 projects sit in Quebec or Ontario — but the release does not publish application volumes by province, so it cannot show whether projects elsewhere were passed over or never filed.
