No incentives means no Hollywood. It is literally that simple.
Unlike building factories, the film productions can move to wherever the industry people can go, and be creative.
Canadian-designed film incentives cause runaway production by attempting to erode the comparative advantages the U.S. has from its concentrated industry clusters in California and New York. These clusters are the key to the U.S. film industry’s global dominance, and policymakers in the U.S. seem completely oblivious to this monumentally important fact.
Canada is not the only one. China will get bigger, and has a better chance IMHO.
