The Big Tables: Film and video incentives in Canada

Canada’s film and television industry continues to rebound following the challenges it faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, the annual volume of film and television production was $11.69 billion, and the industry generated $13.73 billion in gross domestic product while supporting approximately 241,000 jobs across Canada.1

The film and television industry is of vital importance in Canada, both economically and culturally. It is supported by federal, provincial and territorial governments, which encourage investment by domestic and foreign producers through incentives that help offset the cost of productions in Canadian locations.
