I don't know if that 40% tax credit on labour is compelling enough or not, which is why I refrained from quoting any actual numbers in my previous post.

In a news1130 article, I remember reading a few of the local film crew / groups / unions type of organizations were very supportive of the NDP's 40% tax credit proposal. I hope their assessment on the situation is accurate, because as a BC resident, obviously I'd want the province's economy to do well.
