The extensive experience of theatrical exhibitors, whom we tend to ignore, should also be put to greater use. And we need to re-examine the role of Canada's public and private broadcasters in the production, distribution and marketing of Canadian movies. Creating our own model means preserving the special character that makes Canadian cinema unique, and helping it to develop and mature. This also implies a wide range of films that lends a voice to both eminent filmmakers and bold new talent, and which has many sources of inspiration. Everything leads me to believe that this can be achieved, because we have already done it successfully for television and because originality is a hallmark of Canada's industry.
Canadian film enjoys an excellent reputation, but the best is yet to come.
