"Genie Awards Day"
May 1, 2004
| WHEREAS: |
the Genie Awards are recognized nationally and internationally within the industry, as one of the most prominent and prestigious accolades to be bestowed on an individual. This exciting and much anticipated event brings attention to Canada's cinematic talents and attracts more than 1,000 film industry professionals, visitors and viewers while focusing attention on the City of Toronto; and |
| WHEREAS: |
the Genie Awards acknowledge and celebrate the past year in Canadian cinema, rewarding those who have been recognized by their peers for their excellence in all areas in cinema, including special awards for unique individual contributions. The awards recognize the level of professionalism and quality that many deserving Canadians demonstrate on a daily basis; and |
| WHEREAS: |
Toronto is the third largest entertainment centre in North America. Our city provides filmmakers with an entire range of facilities from mass pre-production to mass post-production. The output, input and, of course, the quality, is constantly increasing and growing stronger with each passing year. |
| THEREFORE: |
I, Mayor David Miller on behalf of Toronto City Council, do hereby proclaim May 1, 2004 as "Genie Awards Day" and congratulate the Academy of Canadian Cinema & Television, the award recipients as well as everyone involved in this successful event. |
