RECOMMENDATION
Her Excellency the Governor General recommends to the House of Commons the appropriation of public revenue under the circumstances, in the manner and for the purposes set out in a measure entitled “An Act to amend the Telefilm Canada Act and another Act”.
SUMMARY
This enactment provides Telefilm Canada with a mandate to act in audio-visual industries including film, television and new media. It also provides the Corporation with the authority to act in the sound recording industry under agreements made with the Department of Canadian Heritage. The enactment also grants Telefilm Canada, for the purpose of carrying out its mandate, the powers of a natural person. Everything done by the Corporation before the coming into force of this enactment is deemed to be valid to the same extent as it would have been were it done after this enactment comes into force.
