Canadian Film and Television Production Association (CFTPA)

Our goal at the CFTPA is to promote and stimulate the Canadian production industry. As a non-profit trade association we represent almost 400 film, television and interactive media companies across the country. We negotiate and manage labour agreements, and actively lobby the federal and provincial governments on various policy areas including taxation, trade, copyright, broadcasting and film. Our National Mentorship Program trains young people to meet the demands of this evolving industry. The association also holds an annual networking conference, Prime Time in Ottawa, where we release Profile, our state of the industry report featuring the industry's most comprehensive statistics. We also publish and sell GUIDE, Canada's production industry directory. With offices in Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver, the CFTPA is always there for the independent Canadian producer.
