Since I was a child I have been able to watch as my dad and all his friends have created something from the ground up in Sask. It is a beautiful art, we must support it and save the SFETC!

What point is there in retention tax incentive programs if there are no jobs for newly graduated Arts students? Such attacks on the arts and culture sectors only drive away investment and well-educated, local youth. Reasons to stay in SK dwindle.

My first job was working on Devine Era propaganda commercials. I always felt it was that Conservative government that gave a boost to the birth of our industry.
60Chris Kaptein
During this time of provincial growth it's disturbing to see this kind of backwards thinking.
61Jay Robertson
Cutting this tax credit won't just 'effect" the film industry, it will annihilate it. It's an industry nuclear strike

I am deeply saddened by the decision to cut this program. It is crucial for keeping our film industry vibrant. I hope the Wall government rethinks this decision.
64Darryl Kesslar
Saskatchewan has many ways that we are unique in North America, not having a tax credit shouldn't be one of them.
65Jillian Suchan
Please make things right to keep the future and dreams of both my extremely talented sisters alive in their home province.

Kill the arts, and you'll left with nothing.

The elimination of the credit will destroy thousands of jobs not only in Saskatchewan, but across the country. This is short-sightedness to the extreme
74alex khad
we wouldn't be saving money by cutting the tax benefits. you're driving away investment and driving away economic activity that the film industry brings.
75Samantha Jewell
This will be a huge loss the Canadian Film/TV Industry, it would be a shame for Sask. to miss out - and such a waste of all of their in-province talent.

I'd like to stay in province once I'm done my BFA program. Without the tax credit, I'll be forced to leave & my dearest mothership will be heartbroken.

This cut will destroy the film & television industry in Saskatchewan. Outside films & shows will stay away, our people will move away and nobody will be here to tell Saskatchewan stories.
83Crystal Klassen
I don't see why we would offer a film program in this province if the grads will have to move away to get work...

As our province continues to lead the country in terms of job growth, cutting jobs makes little sense.

88Mark Claxton
Killing an industry for a one-time, on-paper saving of about $8 per resident is breathtakingly bad government.
89Paula Mead Ricci
90Daryl Fraess
why would we stop something that brings in as many dollars to the province that it does? California even has a Film & Television Tax Credit Program why would we not as well?

93Jeff Martel
If the sask party really looked at and understood the numbers, the economic benefit to the province, the tax credit would never have been cut.

Scrapping the SFETC is just giving away money. Sending cultural workers & culture based business & investment down the road. This incentive is a money maker not a money loser. The model is the same for all businesses. Please re think this!
96Jennifer Hiebert
97Jessa Alston-O'Connor
Very poor decision, I hope it can be reversed!
98Kimberly
There is already not enough beauty in art in this province. Now it has zero opportunity to grow. Is everyone supposed to become a tattoo artist or a tagger? Hurray for Hep C increase and a jack in destruction of private property.
99Leora Godden
100Robert Cuffley
Ridiculous that this has happened. Reverse this and continue to reap the benefits of an active film industry.
