“I signed film deals with the United Kingdom and Spain at the Toronto film festival. Deals like this bring about 500 million dollars into our economy. The government must keep supporting them to protect Canadian culture.”
Official Hansard

Mr. Speaker, it was a real pleasure to be at TIFF over the last week and connect with creators from Canada and around the world. I had the opportunity to sign two co-production agreements: one with the United Kingdom and the other with Spain. This is part of a network of 60 agreements that we have around the world that generate about $500 million in our economy. They need the support of the Canadian government, but at the same time, it reinforces our cultural sovereignty, which we need to do now more than ever.
