@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social#ACTRAToronto members who made $10K a yr could see their earnings drop below $5K if the Americans stopped filming 'American Content' in Canada.
#ACTRA members who made $5K a yr could see their earnings drop below $2-3K
They wouldn’t qualify for CERB relief if a COVID variant shut down the industry
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social#ACTRA National President Eleanor Noble looks and sounds like she's cooking a meal in her pant suit while she's answering the reporter's question about the impact that the American productions leaving Canada would have on #ACTRAToronto members:

@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialI don't believe there is a solution.
#ACTRAToronto union's leaders are calling on the Ontario govt to waste more Canadian taxpayer dollars on Canadian tv shows and Canadian movies that the vast majority of Canadians won't be interested in watching in Canada.
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialIf you supported the actors in America who are SAG-AFTRA union members you'd speak up about all of the SAG-AFTRA union members who have been missing out on employment opportunities because of the American tv & film productions that are being filmed in Canada.
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialIn America you would be "Wendy the Broke" if you were a SAG-AFTRA union member.
American SAG-AFTRA union members are missing out on employment opportunities in America because of all the American tv & film productions that are being filmed in Canada.
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialThe film & tv industry in Canada would go "Canadian belly up" if the American producers who've been shooting their American film & tv productions in Canada decided to shoot their productions in the US and #BoycottCanada .

@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialStatus in the film and tv industry isn't about fame???
Celebrity and fame are the ONLY things that matter to the leaders of #ACTRAToronto .
#ACTRA has a long sorry history of turning a blind eye and a deaf ear to the concerns of the union members who remain powerless because they aren't famous.
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.socialThe Ontario government can't ensure that Ontario would remain a top film & TV destination.
If U.S. President #DonaldTrump initiated a federal production incentive that caused the 'runaway productions' that have been shooting in Canada to remain in the U.S.,the #ACTRAToronto members would be SOL.
@hollyweirdnorth.bsky.social#ACTRAToronto :
"Cultural sovereignty and film & tv policy are now inseparable from trade and industrial policy."?!?
Trade and industrial policy are entirely different from
#ACTRA 's film & tv policy.
ACTRA's film & tv policy is systemically racist, ageist, sexist, and ableist
