You're not honouring the talent or the resilience of the #ACTRAToronto union members who are earning less than $15,000 a year in the film, tv, and commercial industry when you cajole AFBS into being a Platinum Sponsor of the #ACTRAAwards

You're shamelessly thumbing your nose at the #ACTRA members.

Stay tuned. Our 2026 host reveal, nominee announcements, presenters, sponsors, and ticket information, are about to take the spotlight. Keep an eye on our socials, your inbox and the #ACTRAAwards in Toronto webpage — we can’t to celebrate with you!

We are delighted to announce that award-winning actor Paul Sun-Hyung Lee will be presented with ACTRA Toronto’s 2026 Award of Excellence at the 24th #ACTRAAwards in Toronto, taking place on May 11, 2026 at Koerner Hall at the TELUS Centre for Performance and Learning!

#ACTRA : Lather, Rinse, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat... " Working with the best performers in the industry means the best ads for agencies, and for clients.

The #ACTRAAwards category for best performance in a commercial, "Outstanding Performance – Commercial On Camera (Principal or Silent On Camera)", says everything that needs to be said about the so-called value / importance of winning an #ACTRA Award.

What a joke

The #ACTRAToronto #ACTRAAwards winner presumes to speak for every Canadian.

She wouldn't listen to any Canadian who would tell her that she doesn't speak for them, and then she would turn around and accuse them of not listening to her.

Debra McGrath is unintentionally funnier than her husband.

Every Canadian who #ACTRAToronto #ACTRAAwards recipient Debra McGrath has been asking if they are not a citizen and not a taxpayer should have responded with "Yes, I am a Canadian citizen and a Canadian taxpayer and as such I have the freedom to watch 'American Content' instead of #CanadianContent".

We're still buzzing about the amazing 23rd #ACTRAAwards in Toronto, proudly presented by AFBS! Watch as Gabriella de la Torre chats with Award of Excellence Debra McGrath (& family!) about believing in yourself, fighting for performers, and supporting Canadian content.

Will #ACTRAToronto President Ziegler be thanking all of the debt-ridden #ACTRA union members who have been missing out on job opportunities for over 3 years at this year's #ACTRAAwards?

Will she be throwing the words #Solidarity and #unionstrong around as if they actually mean anything anymore?

Will #ACTRAToronto President Kate Ziegler be calling on everyone in attendance at this year's #ACTRAAwards to bow their heads in a moment of silence for all the union members who are suffering financially as a result of #ACTRA 's steadfast refusal to be exclusive to the NCA signatory agencies?

The #ACTRAAwards should be free

Every #ACTRAToronto member who pays dues should be eligible to attend

#ACTRA 's leaders go on about how grateful they are for the sacrifices that the members have been making for the union

And then they hit those same members with what amounts to a 'cash grab'
