Artists need opportunities. Don't take this away from us by cutting tax credits to the film industry

the Arts are not quantifiable. What they offer is a quality of life for all participants. To understand what it means to be human cannot be measured.

The decision to cut funding to the SFETC makes little economic sense, as the program produces an excellent return on investment. For the sake of Saskatchewan's economic and cultural health, I urge the Premier to reconsider the decision.
6162Michael Dornian
As a visual artist, I feel why are the arts always on the chopping block. They are just important as sports.

FILM IS NECESSARY

This is very short-sighted and must be reconsidered. It is the beginning of the erosion of all cultural industries in Saskatchewan.
6186Shammi Rambaran
Keep our film industry alive!

The removal of the taz credit will reduce revue tn this Province by about 10 fold. Not a good idea to cut this by anyone's Math.

Perhaps the plateau of the film industry has to do with the high Canadian dollar, the Saskatchewan boom and how this affects the cost for Americans to do business here? Other corporate tax credit programs exist in Saskatchewan for gas/oil, manufacturing/processing, research and more. These corporate tax credits are supposedly in place to make Saskatchewan more competitive. If the logistical reason behind the SFTEC cut is because an industry shouldn't have to rely on tax credits, then I don't understand why tax credit cuts weren't made across the board? Please clarify.

It seems that the Government of Saskatchewan, who represents a land that seems endless in its plenty, has naively overstated the importance that its uranium, potash and oil bring to it. Years from now, when the oil drills sit there rusting, when the factory towns shut down there will be nothing to be said about this province--people will once again just pass on through. What governments seem to almost always overlook is the absolute importance of a cultural industry. It is integral to the province and its people, for it defines who we are and has an impact on how people perceive us.
6197Stephen Peasley
Oh, Saskatchewan. You have such potential but are your own worst enemy. The tax credit controversy is disappointing. I hope you will reverse the decision.

There are many spinoffs from the entertainment industry; let's not kill the tax credit please.

Please save the tax credit. Film is important!
