The Canada Media Fund (CMF, French: Fonds des médias du Canada - FMC) is a public–private partnership founded on April 1, 2010, by the Department of Canadian Heritage and the Canadian cable industry.[1] It is used to fund the creation of original Canadian content and support the Canadian media industry. The fund is composed of contributions made by Canadian broadcasting distribution undertakings (BDUs)—as mandated by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)[2]—and the federal government. It funds roughly $366 million annually.[3]
