Local Vancouver guilds and unions, including unionized actors, okayed a proposal from U.S. and Canadian producers to extend their respective labor agreements to March 31, 2025, buying labor peace north of the border.
“The DGC BC is pleased to announce that, after consultation with our membership, we have agreed to the one-year extension of our contract, with a 5 percent increase in wages effective March 31, 2024. The other BC Film Unions: BC Council of Film Unions: IATSE 891, ICG 669, and Teamsters 155; and UBCP/ACTRA) have also agreed to the extension,” the board of the DGC B.C. branch said in a statement.
“Our goal, as always, is creating a stable production environment. We stand in solidarity with the WGA and SAG AFTRA and we look forward to their negotiations ending in a fair result for both unions. Once those negotiations conclude, we expect that the stable labour environment will encourage productions to land here in B.C.,” the guild’s board added in a statement.
