Telefilm Makes Sustainability Plans Mandatory
Films selected for funding under Telefilm Canada’s production support programs will now be required to submit a sustainability plan before the start of principal photography. The requirement was announced in an industry advisory by the Crown corporation on Tuesday (May 16) and is now in effect.
