    2026/10/15

    "I want the workers who have built this industry to continue to have the opportunities...this proposal we're bringing to Ottawa is worth taking seriously."

    Our newest guest on the Apple Box Talks podcast is Burnaby Central MP Wade Chang. A Member of Parliament since 2025, Wade's upbringing in an immigrant family taught him the values of community support and open opportunities for all, lessons that guide his work today. A supporter of our industry, Wade sponsored a petition to eliminate the federal grind for Canadian motion picture, and was recently able to go on a tour of Mammoth Studios to gain a better understanding of the work our members do.
