| Descripción: | Abstract: Policy-makers in Canada have concluded that foreign ownership of film distribution is adversely affecting the development of an indigenous film industry. This paper refutes this contention by arguing that film distributors act in an efficient and competitive fashion with no bias against distributing commercially promising Canadian films. Résumé: Les responsables des politiques canadiennes en la matière ont souvent soutenu que la propriété étrangère des réseaux de distribution de films avait un effet négatif sur le développement d'une industrie cinématographique chez nous. Cet article réfute cette affirmation en soutenant que les distributeurs de films se comportent de manière efficace et compétitive, sans préjugé à l'endroit des films canadiens qui présentent un potentiel au plan commercial. |
