BC's Finance Minister says BC will continue to push for a unified tax credit system with Ontario and Quebec for the film industry.

Mike de Jong says he's had talks with representatives from Ontario and Quebec about equaling the playing field for the film industry across those provinces.

“Ontario with 18 deficits that run in the billions upon billions upon billions of dollars, so engaging in conversations with other provincial jurisdictions to find savings and to coordinate amongst ourselves, I would think would be a very attractive strategy."

de Jong was responding to a globe and mail report which suggested those provinces aren't willing to reduce tax credits on offer.

He was speaking to Sean Leslie on The World Today Weekend.
