The numbers are in, folks.

• $24 million for the Film Industry Tax Credit

• The Film Industry Tax Credit will change from one that is fully refundable to one that is 25 per cent refundable.

• The remaining 75 per cent of the eligible tax credit will be provided as a non-refundable credit, available to film companies against the taxes they owe in Nova Scotia.

    You should specify in the article title that this pertains to Nova Scotia. When it popped up in my news feed I didn’t fully understand whether this is a federal tax credit or a specific province, until I saw Nova Scotia mentioned further down and dug back to the preceding post about the Nova Scotia budget. Just a thought.
