	Telefilm Canada
		Under Pierre Des Roches's directorship (1988-94), Telefilm was put on an increasingly businesslike basis, shifting its role in film and television projects to that of an investor, not a subsidizer.
		Telefilm worked closely with the growing number of provincial film agencies which appeared in the 1980s.
		Telefilm invests in the distribution, marketing and subtitling of films produced with its support, new media and music, and it administers a program of grants to Canadian film festivals.

	Telefilm Canada
		Telefilm Canada is a Crown Corporation of the federal government.
		Telefilm is neither a producer nor a distributor and it is not equipped with a production studio; instead, it acts primarily as a banker and deals principally with independent Canadian producers.
		To reflect this shift in investment priorities the CFDC was renamed Telefilm Canada in February 1984.

	Telefilm Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Telefilm Canada is a federal cultural agency dedicated to the development and promotion of the Canadian audiovisual industry.
		The CFDC was renamed to Telefilm Canada in 1984.
		Telefilm also administers the funding programs of the Canadian Television Fund.

	IV. TELEFILM CANADA
		Telefilm has taken the position that the Memorandum of Understanding is not sufficiently clear in its definition of “producers who are not broadcasters” and has adopted an approach intended to avoid conflicts of interest.
		Nevertheless, Telefilm is not a producer or a co-producer of the projects it funds, but is simply a source of public funding.
		Telefilm Canada should resist the temptation to operate like a “studio,” and should limit its creative involvement to selecting those projects that will be funded.

	June 15, 2005 - New influence for Telefilm by Murray Whyte
		Telefilm Canada, the country's biggest funding source for film and television production, announced yesterday a new deal with CBC to produce feature-length documentary films.
		Frulla said Telefilm's control of the fund was on a contractual basis only.
		The CBC announcement is meagre by comparison - a $1.5 million commitment by Telefilm for the 2005-06 season - but it's part of a larger movement expanding the role of the agency, and its executive director, Wayne Clarkson, in how - and what - film and television is made in the country.

	IV. TELEFILM CANADA
		Telefilm's ability to recover its investment has been further reduced because independent producers could only attract private investment under the Capital Cost Allowance incentive if Telefilm allowed those investors to be paid back first, or at least on a preferred basis to Telefilm.
		Telefilm has in fact reduced the proportion of Broadcast Fund production budgets it covers from an average of 32.3% over the past five years to 30% in the most recent year.
		By 1994-95, Telefilm's Parliamentary appropriation had been reduced by 16%, from $146 million to $122 million, but Telefilm had (somewhat arbitrarily) reduced the Feature Film Fund by 57% from the levels set when the Fund was created.

	Spielberg sets “Anne Frank” telefilm
		Los Angeles — Steven Spielberg has signed to executive produce a three-hour ABC telefilm based on the life of Anne Frank, the teenage icon of the Holocaust whose poignant diary has put a human face on the horrors of the Nazi era for millions of readers during the last 50 years.
		The telefilm is expected to air next season, but there's no word on casting or a target date for the start of production.
		While Frank's story of two years of hiding in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is well-known, the telefilm will explore her early childhood in Frankfurt, Germany, through her last days at the age of 15 in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.

		Telefilm Canada is circulating a draft proposal addressing the governance and administration of Canadian TV funding that it hopes will be adopted in the coming weeks by the Department of Canadian Heritage.

		Bill C-18, An Act to amend the Telefilm Canada Act and another Act, was introduced in the House of Commons and given first reading on 1 November 2004. The bill was referred to the House of Commons Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage on 15 November 2004.
		The Telefilm Canada Act established the corporate body Telefilm Canada (the “Corporation”), which is a federal cultural agency that seeks to develop and promote Canadian audio-visual industries, including film, television, new media and music.
		The second significant amendment concerns provisions of the Financial Administration Act. Telefilm Canada is exempt from certain provisions of that legislation; while preserving this exemption, Bill C-18 states that particular sections relating to financial accountability are to apply to the Corporation. This constitutes a change from the situation as it currently exists.
