The Canadian music industry includes a wide range of creators and entrepreneurs, who create, produce and market original and diverse Canadian music. To help the industry meet new challenges, the Government created the Canada Music Fund (CMF). The CMF is the primary tool implementing the three major objectives of the Canadian Sound Recording Policy, From Creators to Audience, which are:

  • to enhance Canadians access to a diverse range of Canadian music choices through existing and emerging media;
  • to increase the opportunities available for Canadian music artists and entrepreneurs to make a significant and lasting contribution to Canadian cultural expression; and,
  • to ensure that Canadian music artists and entrepreneurs have the skills, know-how and tools to succeed in a global and digital environment.

The CMF consists of five complementary components, each one contributing uniquely to the aforementioned goals.
