Very interesting. Canada is a beautiful country and has lots of different environments for filming. That kind of drop in their dollar has American production companies licking their chops. Thanks for the post.
um, it works the other way around. when your money is worth more somewhere else…the other place becomes the bargain
I was referring to how American Production companies will want to film in Canada. It's cheaper and the tax credits. Such a bargin they're almost salivating.
It would also help the Canadian economy.
