Québec Cinema Foundation is a charitable organization based in Montreal, Quebec, classified by the CRA under arts. It appears on the charity register the way hospitals, universities, and other publicly funded bodies do — to issue tax receipts — rather than as a donation-driven charity in the usual sense. In its fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, it reported $4M in revenue and $4.4M in expenditures. Spending exceeded revenue that year — the gap came out of reserves.
Its funding that year was roughly 53% from government. Government funding is the majority of its budget. In 2024, 1 other registered charity reported granting it a combined $57.
Compared with 90 arts institutions of similar size, its share of spending on mission — charitable programs plus grants to other charities — ranked above 35% of peers. Its highest-paid positions fell in the $80,000–119,999 range (2 positions in that band). The charity reported 16 permanent full-time positions.
Its filed list of directors and trustees shows 12 names.
