“An additional $275.00 fee has been added by the Canadian Government to the application for international artists to enter and perform within Canada.
This additional $275.00 fee – applications previously were a one time fee of $150.00, and now total $425 per band member – is required to be paid by talent buyers in Canada when aiming to host an international touring artist. This will inevitably cripple small music venues and small business talent buyers”.
