The Federal Minister responsible for the arts says British Columbians shouldn't expect additional tax cuts for film in the upcoming budget.

James Moore says he's not going to get involved in the debate between the Provincial Government and local film industry workers over saving BC film. 

"We also should be mindful as well that it's not just about tax credits and investments, the boom and bust of the film industry is also driven a lot by the value of the Canadian dollar relative to the American dollar, the strength of the American economy, the strength of the California economy."

Moore says the Federal Government already has tax cuts for the film industry, and nationally the industry is doing well.
