Canadian Industry Rebuffs Trump's DEI Rollback
The Canadian film and TV industry won't be sweeping efforts to boost diversity, equity and inclusion as part of a racial reckoning under the carpet anytime soon in the face of the Donald Trump administration's DEI crackdown. That commitment came Monday at the Banff World Media Festival, where major Canadian broadcasters, producers, guilds and funding agencies unveiled a statement of values to double down on efforts to advance diversity and inclusion in the domestic screen industry to reflect the country's multicultural communities. More from The Hollywood Reporter Trump's Trade War Will Loom Large Over the Banff World Media Fest 'Maxton Hall: The World Between Us' Renewed for Season 3 at Prime Video Stephen Curry, Nicola Coughlan, Patton Oswalt Lead All-Star Voice Cast of Sony's 'GOAT' 'It's holding each other to our promises, our commitments,' Christa Dickenson, CEO of CPAC, Canada's C-SPAN network, told The Hollywood Reporter. The statement of values asserts 'we believe that diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and lived experiences (including those of individuals from diverse racial, sexual, and gender identities and expressions, as well as those with disabilities) lead to stronger, more engaging, and innovative content.' The goal for Canadian media players is to continue reflecting and representing all domestic audiences with a diverse field of programming. 'We commit to actively dismantling systemic discrimination, including racism, ableism, and other forms of oppression, within our organizations and throughout the screen industry,' the statement of values added. In the wake of the murder of George Floyd in 2020, whose death sparked protests for racial justice, the Canadian film and TV industry, backed by government financing and tax credits, committed itself to greater diversity of creative voices, including new talent from the country's Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities. But the second Trump administration has seen DEI efforts south of the border come under attack, with the U.S. entertainment industry putting efforts to diverse screen content on the back burner. The Canadian industry, after a series of consultations and bargaining, by contrast has looked to press ahead to maintain hard-won equality gains and resist pressures to once again marginalize and erase certain peoples on screen. Joan Jenkinson, CEO of the Black Screen Office, told THR that, at a time of retrenchment in Hollywood from diversity and inclusion efforts, Canada's screen industry is distinct and stepping forward. 'We're doubling down on what we believe and, despite the rhetoric and the vitriol coming from Trump and from other parts of Europe, we're saying we want to be leaders in this space,' she insisted. Jenkinson in her earlier address in Banff on Monday said the Canadian industry would not retreat, and instead will double down on its commitment to diversity and inclusion. 'Today, at Banff, we say this together: Canada's screen industry is not backing down. We're stepping forward.' Around 75 major Canadian industry players and organizations have so far signed the statement of values, and more are expected to come on board after the unveiling in Banff. That effort has been helped by the federal Canadian government, led by Prime Minister Mark Carney, continuing to invest in diverse homegrown talent, in front and behind the camera. And while the Canadian industry made early gains to close a gender gap in the film and TV industry, making strides in advancing and promoting talent from underrepresented Black, Indigenous and People of Color communities has been slower and more incremental. Canadian media players face the same economic headwinds and slimmed-down content budgets that has led some of its American peers to give up on ideals. Against that backdrop, a beneficiary of a shift to supporting underrepresented voices in the domestic industry has been indigenous content creators, which includes producers of the recent Netflix and CBC comedy North of North, starring Anna Lambe. 'As the world's first national Indigenous broadcaster, APTN is proud to be a founding signatory and to help lead this collective step forward. Together, we're shaping a screen industry that is more inclusive, more reflective of the communities we serve, and guided by values that represent us all,' Mike Omelus, CEO of APTN, Canada's indigenous-focused TV network, said in a statement.

Trump's Birthday Military Parade Just Took Another Sinister Turn
As the Army transports military equipment to the nation's capital in preparation for next week's military parade in honor of its 250th birthday—and Trump's 79th—one tank transporter carried a sinister, graffitied message: 'Hang Fauci & Bill Gates.' A video of that transporter was shared by the Army's official X account and was viewied nearly 700,000 times after it was left up for 24 hours. It has subsequently been taken down and disavowed: 'That statement does not align with Army values,' Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, told The Washington Post, which first reported on the graffiti. Dr. Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, rose to prominence as a key member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force during the Covid pandemic. His leadership and deference to science made him a villain of the right, resulting in him being placed under investigation by the GOP and receiving countless 'credible death threats.' Microsoft co-founder and billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates has also long been the center of right-wing ire and conspiracy theories. While it's not clear who is responsible for the graffiti, it is deeply troubling to see a call for the murder of two high-profile, politically liberal civilians on an Army vehicle and on the Army's official account. It underscores the charged political environment that surrounds the Trump administration. The parade itself—scheduled for June 14—will be a massive, resounding demonstration of the military's power and loyalty to Trump.

Army deletes video of DC parade tanks with 'Hang Fauci & Bill Gates' graffiti
Army deletes video of DC parade tanks with 'Hang Fauci & Bill Gates' graffiti Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, said they have no plans to investigate. 'We removed the post once notified of graffiti on the train that didn't align with Army values,' he said. Show Caption Hide Caption Military equipment headed to DC ahead of Trump's birthday parade Battle tanks, fighting vehicles and infantry carriers departed Texas for D.C. for President Trump's military parade. A now-deleted Army video of tanks being loaded onto a train to Washington, D.C., to appear in the massive June 14 military parade for the Army's 250th anniversary showed a graffitied message spray-painted on the side of the train car – "Hang Fauci & Bill Gates." The video, posted to the Army's X account on Saturday, has since disappeared. It showed an M1A2 Abrams – a 70-ton battle tank – rolling onto a train car at Fort Cavazos in Texas. The death threat to Fauci and Gates – two people who have drawn the ire of President Donald Trump's MAGA base – was painted on a train car marked DODX, property of the Defense Department. Steve Warren, an Army spokesperson, said the Army has no plans to investigate. "We removed the post once notified of graffiti on the train that didn't align with Army values," he said. "We are excited to celebrate 250 years of service to the nation next week." Dr. Anthony Fauci, who led the government's response to COVID during Trump's first term, and Bill Gates, the billionaire Microsoft founder, are frequent targets of criticism from Republicans and Trump's supporters. Fauci has said he received a deluge of death threats and harassment since he became a magnet for right-wing outrage as the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases during the Pandemic, making him the public face of many pandemic social distancing policies and the COVID vaccine. Republicans have accused him of funding the Chinese government to create the virus and conservative firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said he "belongs in prison." "I still think deep down that there's a possibility that somebody's going to kill me," Fauci told USA TODAY in a 2024 interview. Former President Joe Biden issued a preemptive pardon for Fauci before he left office, anticipating that Trump would seek revenge against the doctor. Days into his second term, Trump pulled federal funding for Fauci's security detail. Gates, a Democratic Party donor who contributed millions to Kamala Harris' presidential campaign, also frequently pops up in some conspiracy theories. He has funded vaccination campaigns in poor countries, fueling online speculation that his vaccines contain microchips to track people. Dozens of tanks to roll through Washington streets The tank in the video was one of 28 tanks and more than two dozen armored vehicles making the weeks-long, cross-country journey to appear in the Army's 250th anniversary parade in the nation's capital on June 14. The tanks and vehicles will be unloaded from the train cars on June 9 in Jessup, Maryland, and transported to downtown Washington by truck. More: Trump's getting his military parade. Here's what they look like from France to Russia The Army is also laying down steel plates on spots in the parade route where the tanks will turn to protect the roads and has said it will pay for any damage they sustain. Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser said on May 29 she is still "concerned" about road damage. The parade has faced scrutiny for conspicuously falling on President Donald Trump's birthday – also June 14. Trump pushed for a military parade during this first term but canceled his plans after pushback from Democrats and local politicians over the cost and logistics. This time around, the parade is estimated to cost as much as $40 million. Around 7,000 soldiers will also arrive in Washington for the occasion, which will also feature historic warplanes, helicopters, parachutists, and a bevy of events and entertainment.
