@hollanderaised It is funny that the Canadian Screen awards tried to fix the problem of american celebrities taking all the awards due to co-funding but never imagined an american actor would just work on a solely canadian production and it happening Year 1 of the new rules 😅

Unpopular opinion but everyone should direct their anger at the American awards system, not Canada. Canadian awards uplifting Canadian talent isn’t the issue it’s a response to an industry that constantly overlooks Canadian work

Me and Calgary meterologists need to have a sit down because their understanding of 2cm is different then my understanding of 2cm.

Sorry Connor, no one could imagine an American actor choosing to act in an actual Canadian production 😅

Yall strict as hell nowadays...cant rpf on main cant tweet a player's full name cant buy player-used equipment cant wish injury on your opps. What are yall even doing bc i know it's not reading a book

@NHLFlames You leave this team unsupervised for one evening...

A faceoff of the captains with Backs, Iggy and Lanny battling out in the Silvertip Captains Race 👀

@biangkka @argnarb @danielarmands And I telling you Ryan Price would be terrible financial planning.

@Joker_Fish @argnarb @danielarmands You're mixing up two separate things bc you kept nitpicking my replies. I'm saying they will not limit themselves to Canada if they deem a character more relevant, that they are capable of financially planning cast exceptions. And AS EXAMPLE I mentioned how François was a

Guys it’s literally him

@foxinsox26 @VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands Oh i'm sure the CRA will take that into account for the Canadian tax credit that HR relies on to get funding from the canadian media fund.

@Joker_Fish @VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands He’s not that famous yet, and he would benefit from the exposure of a popular show, especially if it’s only a 1-2 year commitment

I blocked everyone who was shitty towards Rachel Reid at the start of the show and now I never see the drama that everyone on HRtwt is reacting to? Turns out the venn diagram was a circle.

@foxinsox26 @VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands yes but if he appears and gets paid for season 2 - his salary would still need to work within the non canadian expense % for season 2.

@Joker_Fish @VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands Most likely, they are planning to do a separate miniseries for some of the other books, rather than cramming them all into Shane and Ilya’s story. His casting would make more sense that way

@biangkka @argnarb @danielarmands I think you lost the plot a little. I'm saying they're not going cast outside canada for the role of Ryan Price for funding reasons and now you telling me about how they cast a famous Canadian actor. That's not an issue for government funding. It's in fact what the funding wants.

@Joker_Fish @argnarb @danielarmands Yes Canadian and famously the one they spent the most money on bc of his household name, they took a risk even if he's part of the gov budget. The casting directors or producers have spoken abt it. Why do you wanna disagree so bad? I'm not fighting you wtf.

@biangkka @argnarb @danielarmands Canadian actor François?

@Joker_Fish @argnarb @danielarmands Nooo you doofus, calm down 😭😂 I just feel like Jacob might see the main characters of the other books as a main ensemble possibility, and that's why they might take more risks for them. They did that with François a bit. You get what I mean?

@biangkka @argnarb @danielarmands Ryan Price. The main ensemble. Of the Long Game and Role Model. Ryan Price.

@Joker_Fish @argnarb @danielarmands If there's a place for them to use this % it would very much be for the actors in the main ensemble. Idk why you think these experienced professionals wouldn't know how to go about these limitations

Embellishment is always funny.

@VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands I've read the both Tough Guy and The Long Game and I know he's not actually that important to Shane and Ilya? Like literally one of their fights is about how Ryan isn't actually important to them.

@Joker_Fish @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands Oh, you've read the script? Could you send me a copy? Thanks!

@VolguusZil41112 @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands Because he's going be in like 5 minutes of season 2?

@Joker_Fish @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands And why the fuck not?

@argnarb @danielarmands It's % of expenses have to remain in canada. So yes they can hire actors, licenses music/programs, import technology. But it all ads up. So with the same budget, and the existing expenses what room do they have left to increase that non-canadian portion?

@Joker_Fish @danielarmands They obviously don’t all need to be, considering Connor

@wrestle_threads @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands None of the other actors can play sports except Robbie lol

@Joker_Fish @GAndGAndMe @danielarmands Makes sense, given that talented ginger giants who can play sports are harder to find.

@GAndGAndMe @danielarmands And your limited ability to cast outside of Canada you use on.... Ryan Price?

@Joker_Fish @danielarmands Cancon rules state that 75 per cent of production and post-production expenses have to go to Canadians or Canadian companies.  So there *is* wiggle-room to hire a modest amount of non-Canadian actors - Which is how a few American actors were hired for Season One.

Shane won them 3 cups. He's going be a 1st ballot hall of famer and going into both montreal and Ottawas rafters. Like, montreal's coach and GM would be fired long before Shane retires lol
