Cinema of Canada

The cinema of Canada dates back to the earliest known display of film in Saint-Laurent, Quebec, in 1896. The film industry in Canada has been dominated by the United States, which has utilized Canada as a shooting location and to bypass British film quota laws. Canadian filmmakers, English and French, have been active in the development of cinema in the United States and cinema in the United Kingdom.
