This shows a lack of appreciation for the arts and artists that saskatchewan should be encouraging. How about the public relations angle rad How much do we pay to publicize our amazing province?

This act is incorrect - introducing a plague of problems and difficulties to the livelihood of many professional creative technicians.
These signs of greed-driven priorities of the government is detrimental to the cultural economy of Canada.

Brad Wall has got to go!!
6407Jill P
Unbelievably short sighted and poorly researched decision. Bad move, Sask Party!
6408lorne cardinal
A bad decision all around! Your threatening the future of Saskatchewan artists and technicians, who are the best in the country!
6409Bonnie Bergeron
As someone who study film/video production I feel this incentive is crucial to the development and growth of the film/video industry in Sask!
6410Logan Vanghel
As a U of R film production student, this incentive is of the utmost important for this entire branch of the University in terms of bringing in and sustaining interested parties to the province.
6411Robert Couperthwaite
it doesn't cost anything to give a tax credit, but it will cost if this industry goes away.
6412Joel Kaye
A Lack of support for the arts is a complete slap in the face of all of us to strive to be a part of it!

Brad Wall Has obviously never sat through to the end of the credits of a movie or he would know how many people are actuallyl employed in one

I know that this doesn't "personally" effect me, but it does. It effects the province I live in and the people who live here. This is just a greedy cash grab when our province has a surplus.

Come on, Mr. Wall, these fantastic film people will keep our province on the map. This is important to all of us! Give them their tax credit.
6420Melanie Shewchuk
They take away one little thing at a time until we are left with nothing. This is sickening.
6421Kim Ehman
Unbelievable really...very upsetting. My question to the Saskparty is, how will you answer your child or family member when they tell you they wish to work in film? Feels different when it affects you.
6422Garth
You people need to think about this differently. For 330 full time equivalent jobs your industry is being subsidized 17 million dollars between tax credit and sound stage support. That works out to more than 50,000 dollars per job of subsidy. Bad math.

I am disgusted by this, we as a province are in the worlds spotlight right now. This is the time to be pushing and expanding the industry not ingnoring it.

The trickle down effect of this is devastating. Please don't plunge this province into a backwater, stay-away stereotype.

Let's keep arts and culture alive in Saskatchewan and diversify a little. You will continue to attract people and jobs to the province by doing this.

The tax credit offered was already a pittance compared to the credits for farming and oil. The $10M is pocket change to the Sask Party, but it means the end of film in this province. Don't set an ugly precedent and destroy the arts in Saskatchewan.
6431Phill Heartly
This is completely unacceptable. You're putting so many people out of work a closing the door on the arts in Saskatchewan.
6432jan shearer
RE THINK THIS!!!!

6434Jolene p.
Horrible decision.
6435Samantha Lathrop
Government tax credits are detrimental to the profitability and stability of filmmaking in Canada - this industry is my future, and I want it to be a secure one.

6438Cheryl Byers
Saskatchewan has defined itself with a unique perspective in the arts area. We need to protect what is truely our own perspective-that the rest of Canada and the world appreciates.
6439Julia Adams
6440Ariel Haug
Please don't kill the film industry in Saskatchewan. Bad, bad idea.

Don't eliminate the SFETC!

I thought this government prided itself on being able to establish policies ansd programs to grow jobs and the economy. What gives in this industry?
6446Myles Johnson
I've been living abroad for over 15 years and have watched from afar as Sask film and TV has taken off. Don't take this huge step backwards!

A test of a leader is to be able to acknowledge when a mistake has been made.
