What is the filmmaking scene in the city like? I've been hearing a lot about productions moving from the US to Canada because it's cheaper. I'm in NY and genuinely want to be out of all the noise and chaos, and was wondering if it'd be a smart move to consider Toronto. Any thoughts on this?

The filmmaking scene is booming! Apparently, Toronto’s called “Hollywood North”. US productions keep moving here for better tax deals, talented crews, and advanced facilities. The city is investing in new studios and infrastructure, and there’s solid job growth, especially for people already experienced in filmmaking or production. If you’re looking for less chaos and plenty of creative opportunity, I'd say it’s a smart move.

On the city of Toronto website, you can find a list of all active productions going on in the city. Lots of TV shows shoot here. It might be a good resource for production companies.

Hi! I have worked in management roles in tech, mainly in analytics, for approximately 10 years. My TC has fluctuated (currently around 135K CAD), but it seems like it's relatively easy to breach the 100K bar, but hard to breach the 150K bar. I now work at the CBC, but I have worked in the private sector too. What is the most realistic way to move to 200K? 1) Continue moving the ladder to a VP position, 2) Switch to Pre-Sale, 3) Switch to Consulting, 4) Work from a U.S. company from Canada.

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
