President's Message

Summer is here. It is hot, sometimes sunny and smoky. I hope that you all kept your mask!

In May, ACTRA members (those who worked under National Commercial Agreement (NCA) between June 1, 2022 and March 31 in 2025) voted “Yes” on an extension of the NCA from May 2025 to 2026. Even with the “Yes” vote, the Institute of Canadian Agencies (ICA) still locks ACTRA members out. The good news is that Saatchi & Saatchi Canada, a leading Canadian advertising agency, will exclusively cast ACTRA performers.

ACTRA and CBC have reached a memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for a retroactive 3 year extension of the ACTRA – CBC Radio and Television Agreement (July 2022 – June 2025).

In more local news, Actor’s Gym is active. Dawn Bird presented a workshop on Self Auditioning Tape. We will reconvene in September with more workshops. Stay tuned for updates!

IPA Ratification

ACTRA members have voted to ratify the 2025-2027 ACTRA Independent Production Agreement (IPA) for a three-year term.
