This film critic gives one thumb down

The GN has recently identified a need to help the film industry and maybe get to push forward a few projects that would not happen in Nunavut otherwise.

This will create good publicity for Nunavut and help a few more people from the North to make a living. This is a very commendable initiative.

The problem is that the very first concrete action taken by this group is to throw a party.

How typical of these people spending the government dollars. Create a big love-fest and invite all the cronies. The airlines, the hotels, and consultants wil be very happy again, but will there be any money left after to actually help anybody on the streets?

By the way, I hope that they have lots of baseball caps, mugs and T-shirts produced for that new group. We desperately need more promotional items paid for with the taxpayers’ money.
