CCE issues solidarity statement with the WGA and SAG-AFTRA
The CCE would like to express their support of WGA and SAG-AFTRA as they strike in pursuit of fair contracts from the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
Writers and performers deserve to share in the success of the work they do for major Hollywood studios and billion dollar streaming corporations. They should not fear that through AI, their work will be repurposed in the future without consent or proper compensation.
In line with our mission to represent and meet the needs of our post-production community, the CCE supports efforts of all film and television workers to lead successful careers through fair engagement. The entire business model has been changed by streaming, internet distribution, AI, and so must the compensation to those who are the core of our screen-based stories.
We stand in solidarity with WGA and SAG-AFTRA members.

Special Award Recipients
David B. Thompson, CCE began his career in the 1980s as an editor on classic Canadian programming such as THE LITTLEST HOBO and NIGHT HEAT. Over the years, his work spanned all genres, from action/comedy (DUE SOUTH) to science fiction (LEXX, DARK MATTER), and period dramas (THE KENNEDYS). A stalwart presence in the industry for over 50 years, David left a body of work that is almost as big as his heart.
A fantastic editor, mentor, storyteller, jokester, and a great friend to so many, David was part of the first group of inductees to receive the CCE initials in 2008. He won an award at the inaugural CCE Awards in 2011, and over the course of his career garnered 5 Gemini nominations, two 2 DGC and CCE Award nominations, as well as an Emmy nomination for the pilot episode of “24”.
David always said “Cut with your gut, use your feelings to tell the story.”
