Still, that's 40% only on labour, which is pales in comparison to ONT and QC which offer tax credits to the entire production. Which is why you see VFX work still in Vancouver but live-action shooting dropping in BC.

I honestly think the general public wouldn't want more money than last year ($437m) spent on an economy largely benefitting US studios. Don't get me wrong, I work in the CGI industry and I love it, but it's not an essential service.

How would the teachers union feel when the Film industry gets an increase in the budget but not higher education?
