Welcome to the Canadian Renaissance Project!
Canada has some of the most talented and creative artists in the world. From visual arts to performing arts, writers, comics, actors, filmmakers, musicians and more. It is time to stand up for them. It is time to stop exporting our most creative talent to the U.S. and Europe. It is time to take measures to insure that these people can make a reasonable living in Canada and to put them on par with other skilled professionals. If you have had enough of homecomings; enough of Canadian talent flying in from Los Angeles, New York, Paris and London to accept awards in Canada then it is time to take measures to enable them to stay here.
The talent is already here, the creativity and ideas are already here. If we build the proper environment for it Canada can enjoy an explosion of arts and culture that the world will remember forever. Please read the statement here so that you understand exactly what the Canadian Renaissance Project is asking for and why.
