## About Canada Media Fund

The Canada Media Fund (CMF) is a not-for-profit corporation headquartered in Toronto that fosters, develops, finances, and promotes Canadian content and applications across audiovisual media platforms. It is funded jointly by the Government of Canada and Canada's cable, satellite, and IPTV distributors.

Beyond direct funding, CMF offers program guidance, industry insights, research, and export assistance, administering dedicated envelopes for Indigenous creators, official-language minority communities, Black and racialized creators, and interactive digital media innovation.

Its focus spans television, documentary, and interactive digital media production, funding around $362.6 million for Canada's screen industry in 2026-2027 alone. Recent allocations include $940,000 across seven Changing Narratives Fund projects and $10 million for Black and racialized creator-led projects.

CMF's approach centers on public-interest funding criteria—cultural representation, regional and linguistic diversity, and industry sustainability—rather than financial returns. It prioritizes Canadian creators and companies producing original content across broadcast, streaming, and emerging interactive formats.
