Embracing diversity is a core Canadian value we celebrate by encouraging youth to understand how stories are told in this multicultural society. Be a part of the movement to educate and empower the future generation.
Encouraging youth to go into the arts and providing career training for them creates real economic impact. According to the Ontario Media Development Corporation, Ontario’s film and TV industry created more than 35,000 jobs in 2016 and contributed $1.7 billion to Ontario’s economy.
