The Canadian Coalition for Cultural Diversity was first established in 1998 by Quebec’s leading professional associations of the cultural milieu in the midst of the growing opposition to the Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI).
Today, the Coalition includes 34 leading Canadian associations and organizations representing creators, artists, independent producers, distributors and publishers working in the fields of publishing, film, television, new media, music, performing arts and visual arts.
In total, the Coalition’s 34 members represent no less than 180,000 creators and 2,200 companies and non profit organizations from all parts of Canada.
The Coalition is the only national association bringing together the main trade organizations and associations of professionals in the cultural sector.
Mission Statement
The Coalition for Cultural Diversity is the cultural milieu’s main voice in debates on culture and trade, notably on the national front, as well as to support the government’s will to assert its right to apply policies that promote the diversity of cultural expressions.
Vision
The CCD hopes that everyone should be able to benefit from the diversity of cultural expressions that make up humanity’s common heritage.
Values
• INTEGRITY: In order to maintain the credibility to the cause of cultural diversity, the Coalition must always act with integrity.
• COLLABORATION: For the Coalition, a spirit of sharing and collaboration is an integral part of a true diversity of cultural expressions.
• FAIRNESS: Each culture merits to be given as much importance as the next and to be treated and valued fairly.
• RESPECT: In the spirit of Collaboration and Fairness, the Coalition places a high value on respect for diversity.
• INCLUSION: If the Coalition embodies the ideal of the diversity of cultural expressions, it must be inclusive for everyone who has an interest in the issue.
