Did you know that comedy isn’t recognized as its own art form in Canada? Actors, playwrights, dancers, and even circus artists are eligible for discipline-specific funding, while comedians do not have access to program funding of their own. Thanks to one-time emergency Covid funding from Canadian Heritage and the City of Toronto, all of the comedians will receive fees on par with those typically received by performing artists in other government-funded disciplines. #ShowLoveTO
