CRTC decision on Canadian content offers progress, but the real test is if the new framework will create actual opportunities for Canadian performers, says ACTRA. #canpoli #ACTRA #cancon https://t.co/sFiyx2uoH3

Today, we pause to honour all who served and sacrificed in times of war and peace. We remember not to glorify war, but to ensure its lessons are never forgotten.

It’s Federal Budget Day. Canada’s culture sector can’t wait any longer for long-term investment & support for the thousands of jobs it creates. Read ACTRA’s Pre-Budget Submission - we’re urging the government to take action. #Budget2025 #Canpoli #ACTRA https://t.co/LwK3AHxhE0

REWIND to ACTRA’s Day of Action on Parliament Hill - Nov 16, 2009. A cold day, but the energy was pure fire! Dalmar Abuzeid, then a rising star of Degrassi: TNG, stood with #ACTRA performers demanding more Canada on our screens. That day we demanded better. Today we still do.

In our REWIND series, we’re spotlighting the ACTRA members in Saskatchewan who rallied in 2013 after the province cut film & TV tax credits. From petitions to protests, they stood strong for the industry. Pictured: @KimFCoates 🎬 #REWIND #SaskFilm

From Trump to Tilly, this week’s headlines spotlight renewed tariff threats - and the “synthetic performer” case. Watch @MarieKellyNED on Global National urge the federal government to act now on AI regulation. #actra #canpoli https://t.co/f8cX1VIHt8

Like any other art form you can’t just copy and repackage it as your own. The recent “synthetic performer” case is a wake-up call for lawmakers - a clear reminder why moral rights matter. Unchecked AI must be regulated now. #actra #canpoli https://t.co/UBZq0qxznZ

Rewind to Nov 16, 2009: ACTRA performers packed the #CRTC TV Policy Hearings to fight for #CanCon after the 1999 policy slashed Canadian scripted shows from 12 to 2. Today, #ACTRA still fights to protect Canadian stories, jobs & voices on all screens.

Happy Labour Day to ACTRA Members and all workers across Canada and around the world. Stay strong, united, and loud. A message from @actrapresident:
