Reelworld Ally Award Luncheon · April 10

Stand With Us. Be an Ally.

Join us this April 10 for the Reelworld Ally Award Luncheon, where industry leaders, creators, and allies come together to celebrate leadership that drives real change in Canada’s screen industries.

This year, we proudly honour Reynolds Mastin, President & CEO of the Canadian Media Producers Association, as the 2026 recipient of the Reelworld Ally Award.

Why This Moment Matters

The Reelworld Ally Award, presented by the Reelworld Foundation, recognizes leaders whose actions—not just words—advance equity, diversity, inclusion, and access (EDIA) across the screen sector.

At a time when EDIA initiatives are under increasing pressure, showing up matters. Coming together matters. Allyship matters.
