This study was prepared for the Federal, Provincial and Territorial Cultural Promotion and Diversity in the Digital Age Working Group, representing the cultural ministries of the federal, provincial and territorial governments in Canada. The report presents the findings of an assessment conducted of cultural promotion and export initiatives in Canada. The report is expected to inform future research on the diversity of digital Canadian content and opportunities and challenges in the international market.
The project scope entailed the development of an inventory of strategies and initiatives that support Canadian cultural promotion and export, and to identify gaps and emerging or new markets and opportunities in selected cultural sectors and provide considerations and potential next steps with respect to a potential promotion or export approach.
The Canada Council for the Arts retained the services of Communications MDR, in collaboration with Goss Gilroy Inc., to design and implement six online, quantitative and qualitative surveys, in English and French, to collect data from grant recipients of the Canada Council’s six primary programs. The goal of the surveys was to measure program performance against anticipated outcomes, including benefits to grant recipients, and to demonstrate the impact of the Council’s investment more broadly. A series of six program performance reports were developed by Communications MDR based on the findings of each survey.
This report prepared for the imagineNATIVE Institute presents findings of a major examination of Indigenous screen-based content internationally, the factors contributing to its success and lessons to expand opportunities for Canadian Indigenous screen-based productions in the global market. It reveals a growing demand for Indigenous screen content. Furthermore, the number of festivals dedicated to Indigenous content is growing and 76% of Indigenous festivals worldwide present Canadian productions. This report is based on interviews with industry players, surveys of Indigenous festivals and alternate distribution networks, studies of national and international literature and case studies from Canada and around the world.

This study was prepared for the Federal, Provincial and Territorial Cultural Promotion and Diversity in the Digital Age Working Group, representing the cultural ministries of the federal, provincial and territorial governments in Canada. The report presents the findings of an assessment conducted of cultural promotion and export initiatives in Canada. The report is expected to inform future research on the diversity of digital Canadian content and opportunities and challenges in the international market.
The project scope entailed the development of an inventory of strategies and initiatives that support Canadian cultural promotion and export, and to identify gaps and emerging or new markets and opportunities in selected cultural sectors and provide considerations and potential next steps with respect to a potential promotion or export approach.
The Canada Council for the Arts retained the services of Communications MDR, in collaboration with Goss Gilroy Inc., to design and implement six online, quantitative and qualitative surveys, in English and French, to collect data from grant recipients of the Canada Council’s six primary programs. The goal of the surveys was to measure program performance against anticipated outcomes, including benefits to grant recipients, and to demonstrate the impact of the Council’s investment more broadly. A series of six program performance reports were developed by Communications MDR based on the findings of each survey.
This report prepared for the imagineNATIVE Institute presents findings of a major examination of Indigenous screen-based content internationally, the factors contributing to its success and lessons to expand opportunities for Canadian Indigenous screen-based productions in the global market. It reveals a growing demand for Indigenous screen content. Furthermore, the number of festivals dedicated to Indigenous content is growing and 76% of Indigenous festivals worldwide present Canadian productions.
