This industry gave me my first job in Saskatchewan over 10 years ago. It has grown so much since then and employed so many more people. Please reconsider this decision!
4152Lorraine Olson
Very disappointed in this decision
4153Ryan Hutchinson
Mr. Wall has no idea what he is doing.
4154Hunter C Smith
4155Sigrid Hanson
Please listen to the many voices that feel passionate about keeping the SFET in Saskatchewan.
4156H R Lightbown
Tax credits bring work to Sask. In these tough times, I would =think= that should be a political priority!
4157Lindsay Olson
Not impressed. This will not only affect peoples lives but the economic loss will be great.
4158Shelley Ewing
Having a vibrant artistic community is the best investment a province could ever make. It is why many of us have chosen to live here. Please rethink this decision.
4159Perry Sullivan
Bring back the credit please. It generates a lot of positives for the province and the people.

I have lived in and loved this province for my entire life. I implore you to continue with the Film Employment Tax Credit in order to keep the arts and culture that color this wonderful place I call home.

People like Brad Wall never understand the economics of stuff like this. Time for an NDP government in Sask.

4166Don Young
What part of "building a 21st century Saskatchewan" does the Sask Party NOT get? Surely they understand that local entrepreneurship and home grown creativity is at the heart of tomorrow's world. Open your mind Brad Wall before you get left behind..again.
4167Jennifer Murray
Please recognize the short sighted nature of your decision to cut the Film Employment Tax Credit in Saskatchewan. You are effectively causing the mass exodus of anyone involved in the film industry. Over a 1000 tax paying and creative members of our commun

montreal 's film has attracted many people to Qubec. people who spend millions making films, documentaries. it's not a good idea cutting funding for our young directors

4171Alix McLellan
I am behind the film industry 100% and cutting this tax credit will definitely affect the way I vote in the next election.
4172Arlene Schwindt
Sask. has been an big part of the Can. Film Ind. for years - not as big as Toronto or Vancouver but we have produced projects of many kinds & size. People come from all over to work here without the credit we will lose this industry & all related benefits
4173Wally Start
The net benefit of the Film and Television industry to Saskatchewan is immense in terms of jobs and job creation, in terms of culture, and in terms of stories that can travel throughout the world giving Saskatchewan a unique voice.

I am extremely disappointed to hear of the recent decision to discontinue the tax incentive for the film industry in Saskatchewan. I respectively request that this decision be reversed. Our province needs the revenue that the film industry brings to Sask
4176Robert Bellamy
I am very disappointed with the action taken by the Government of Sask. The benefits of the tax credit far outway the credit costs. Let's keep jobs in Sask!

I am embarrassed by the face that the ideology of quick savings is halting the province by sharing stories through a medium that gets across to people and ultimately brings in funds long term for the province and creates many jobs.
4186Preston Schaffer
This will truly hurt the film industry in Saskatchewan.
4187Joanne Crofford
Sask deserves to be seen and heard through the eyes of our film companies and partners.Don't waste the investments already made. Build this industry with this young and dedicated workforce.
4188Anna Pontikis Mcleod
If we are to continue to "prosper" in this province, this gov't must realize there are other ways to generate revenue that do not just include potash!
4189Danny Wilson
4190Alana Hewitt
4191Fred & Anne Ballantyne
We lost TSN, now our film industry. Hard to fathom what this government thinks about the ARTS!
4192Maureen Bayer
4193Carol Olson
4194Denise Paquette
4195David Buehler
Cutting tax credits for industries that need it and can be relocated while refusing to tax industries that cannot be outsourced or relocated (oil, potash, uranium) is frankly irresponsible. Poor long term vision to say the least.
4196S. Goyette
4197Glorie Tebbutt
Culture matters to the quality of life in our province.
4198Brad Patallas
1 spin benefit not mentioned- Lynda Carter ended up hiring a local business to build the staircase of her hollywood home. Without the film credit, the production she worked on likely would have been made elsewhere and that contact would not have been made.
4199Niall richmond-Nykiforuk
So important to support the film industry in Saskatchewan!! Economic Development!
4200Ellen Moffat
The tax credit attracts out-of-province investment which supports secondary businesses such as hotels and restaurants. The effect is negative for SK culture. Younger film-makers to leave the province to find work. The cultural sector will suffer.
