The existence of the Film and TV Tax Credit in Saskatchewan influenced my move from Alberta to Saskatchewan. If it is revoked, I will move provinces along with the majority of the current film and tv community.

This film industry was just starting to get peoples attention all over the world.
255Leo Fafard
256Katheryne Fidler
This Film and TV tax Credit is an integral part of the culture, employment and development of this province.
257Ken Wilson
I can't believe you'd kill off an entire industry, however small, because it requires a subsidy. What about crop insurance? What about the subsidies the oil and gas industries receive? Come on.
258Tracy George
Thousands of people have lost their job and have to leave the province. Not only do we work on movies we do corperate videos, commercials, government commercials and political campanges. I have been here for 47 years and want to stay dont make me move.
259Nola Eva
I hope our elected officials remember it's OK to make a mistake as long as you fix it & learn from it. Reinstate the tax credit!
260Douglas Evans
we need film in saskatchewan.

Undergrad in Film Production from SFU. Completing Masters in Film Production at York. Had plans to raise my kids in Regina. Looking doubtful now.

Apparently the government didn't do the math on this. It may not be a direct return on the cost, but we still see the returns of that in private business.
265Patti Leader
Hopefully they will take a long hard look at the revenue generated and the spin off economy, and have the courage to admit it's all just a tragic mistake and reverse this decision.

I work in film/TV for 100% of my living. By cutting tax credits you will effectively be ending careers in Saskatchewan. Please realize the errors of your ways

272Terri Fidelak
Make a better decision.
273John Allison
You want to be treated as a real province with real cities then you should act like it and encourage the arts to be something here not work to kill it.
274Paula M Tolver
If we are a "have" province, promoting it should not be just focused around oil, gas and potash. Minerals are only a part of equation. Arts, culture and film can be/could be and should be here for a very long time.
275Lucie Spencer-Nairn

We have always been proud of our arts communities in Saskatchewan and we will rally and fight for what we believe in! Reinstate the Film & TV Tax Credit!
278Sheree Fondeur
So sad that so many people are going move or sell their homes or start again in life...because of one man who said no and wouldn't fight for the people in Sask...hmmm Power trip?
279Noel Chevalier
An utterly disgraceful move on the part of the Sask. government. If this is not reversed, then Brad Wall will be spitting in the faces of thousands of people, including the young people he says he wants to keep in the province.
280Carolyn Smith
Backwards economic move. I thought the sign of a strong economy was a strong arts culture. We were just getting people moving back and now we are pushing them out.
281Deanne Schildroth
282Bj Rodgers
Why, if Sask. is the place for "Growth and Opportunity" are we seeing cuts?
283Tamera macdonald
Come on, no reason to get rid of this.
284Erin Hails
285Bernadette Cantin
You are making a huge mistake. TV shows like Corner Gas brought world wide attention to our province. Now you are just taking Saskatchewan off the map.
286LINDA PAYEUR
Who did the math on this one? How does a rebate cost the government? Redo the math and get back in the black.
287Brad Bernas
As a freelance shooter to a filmmaker affected by this cut, it affects myself as well. Tired of my own city's infrastructure, I am about to leave the province altogether.
288Mazin Saffou
This was a short sighted decision that has adverse affects on the arts and culture in this province. Let's invest in making SK a vibrant and creative place to work and live.
289Lana de Lint
Cutting the tax credit is a losing deal:
-we lose friends and neighbours who have to move to work
-support industries lose income
-we lose our international identity
-young filmmakers lose their chance to express their voice
You make us all losers.
290Brittney Graham
291Eric Wood
The film and television industry is undoubtedly an asset to our province. With this rapid growing job and product demand, this industry should stay maintained in Saskatchewan. Handfuls of individuals have worked in and around this business for years and will have to face possibilities of relocating due to following work. Please reconsider this tax credit.
292Meaghan Bentley
293Danine Schlosser
We live in a wonderful province that I call home. But with this slap in the face, not sure I want too. Sorry, I am not a farmer, I am creative person that needs help from the government too....
294Terri Ekvall
295Carrie Siemens
296Elspeth Grafton
297Mason Roth
298Cam Bennett
These cuts are short sighted and malicious. The people and province of Saskatchewan are stronger with a healthy TV & Film Industry so please re-think this move. And it IS an industry, as worthy of support as any other you care to name. Do the right thing!
299Michelle Cantin
Saskatchewan should be trying to stimulate more economic growth instead we are destroying what gains we have made over the last few years. Not smart.
300Rory Dunn
This will drive me away from the province I have lived in my whole life and love with all my heart.
