Wow, I had no idea that it sucked so much in Australia. I actually thought Canada was a little weak/slow in the uptake of producing stuff. Because hey, some of the stuff made up here is AWESOME, but feels few and far between sometimes. Maybe because American media heavily saturates ours even still.

I'm actually so surprised that my little city is becoming such a center for movies, media and TV shows being produced. But there are crazy awesome grants for people who bring productions here (if you hire a certain percentage of local people) and it's SO much cheaper shooting here than in more Southern parts of Ontario. Need to close a road in Toronto? Several hundred or thousands of dollars. Close a road here? Tell the city and put up your own signs.

Still, I'm amazed. It's pretty weird and awesome.
