Creating the new Media Centre for East Calgary Village will be of economic benefit to the entire city.
As a past Radio and Television Broadcaster for more than 20 years, I am in full support of the Cultural and Social activities that cultivate our community. I personally understand their necessity through my own participation in many social events, music concerts, pageants and religious festivals.
I value the contributions of Calgary’s FILM AND PRODUCTION FACILITIES AND THE GROWING INDUSTRY IN OUR CITY.
POST PANDEMIC, WE WILL SEE GROWTH WITH PRESENT FILMS, post-production and increased activities with the Calgary FILM CENTRE.
It is estimated that the annual GDP impact of the Film Industry is projected to be upwards of $480 million dollars with continued expected growth.
This industry will continue to provide jobs, economic growth and provide economic stability.
I would encourage the youth in our City to consider careers in the Entertainment and Film Industry.
My five-pillar policy platform calls for the development of jobs within the economy. Policies and initiatives must be pursued in order to create a stable market for job creators and for small businesses to succeed.
What better way to create change, than in the Entertainment and Film Industry of Calgary and beyond.
