“The Canada Media Fund (CMF) welcomes the generational investment of half a billion dollars in Canadian creators and the cultural economy in Budget 2025, which includes $127.5M for the CMF, $150M for Telefilm Canada, and $26.1M for the National Film Board, over three years. This investment in our screen-based storytellers is a recognition that culture is a national and strategic priority—one that strengthens Canada’s cultural sovereignty, global competitiveness, and shared identity.”
