Abstract

In 1983, the Canadian government established a television fund to facilitate the development of a vibrant independent production sector by investing the production of domestic entertainment in four key genres. Over the next three decades, the annual budget of the Canadian Television Fund grew from C$35 million to over C$325 million1. In taking a stakeholder approach to explore the evolution evaluative practices at the Fund from 1983 to 2010, this study contributes to our understanding of performance measures as a networked practice. It also highlights the centrality of performance measures to multiple accountings of performance in the entertainment industry.
