• The number of foreign TV series shot in Canada last year fell from 345 to 220, generating $2.99 billion in production spending, as key streamers like Netflix and Disney+ shuttered local sets during the strikes.
• While foreign feature film production in Canada only fell 14.7%, the total volume of production generated by those films dropped just 4.9% due to accounting methods that record the value from the first day of principal photography, not when they were paused.
