The Business of Screenwriting in Canada

The Legion of Decency has posted a frank and candid criticism of doing business in Canada. Suffice to say that most people in the film and television business have been used or abused in some form or another at some point in their career. There are many scoundrels who have left a path of unpaid invoices, poor working conditions, poor wages (pocketing your fair share), lack of benefits and sick days. It seems to come part and parcel in an industry like ours. Doesn't mean that you shouldn't do or say anything...

I have worked for some upstanding folks as well - they just don't seem to last as long.

(I had to look up the word benefits - I'd forgotten how to spell it)

Go have a gander and shake your fists.
