SUMMARY:CanFilmDay 2026 with the NFB
DESCRIPTION:National Canadian Film Day (CanFilmDay) is back on April 15\, 2
 026\, and we’re rolling out the red carpet for Canadian stories—coast 
 to coast to coast.\n\nSince 2014\, CanFilmDay has grown into a joyful\, na
 tionwide celebration of Canadian cinema\, bringing hundreds of thousands o
 f people together to watch\, share\, and champion the films that reflect w
 ho we are. Whether you’re catching a screening in your community\, press
 ing play at home\, or joining the conversation online\, this is a day to c
 elebrate our shared cultures\, values\, and creative voices.\n\nFor years\
 , the NFB has proudly collaborated with partners across the country to bri
 ng free\, in‑person screenings of powerful animation and documentary fil
 ms to audiences of all ages. Once again\, we’re thrilled to be part of t
 his massive collective movie night—because dreaming together is better o
 n the big screen.\nJoin the celebration on April 15 and find an NFB film s
