Telefilm Canada thanks Louise Deslauriers for her contribution to the development and production French-language feature films

Montreal, June 3, 2011 – Telefilm Canada’s senior management and employees wish to thank their colleague Louise Deslauriers, National Feature Film Executive – French Market, who recently announced she would be leaving the organization after 13 years of service. She will, however, remain active as a freelancer in the film industry so as to continue sharing her passion for Quebec cinema.

“Louise’s vast experience and her rigour and integrity have brought a lot to the development and production of French-language feature films at Telefilm,” said Michel Pradier, Director, Project Financing. “Under her, the French-Language Feature Film team had its greatest successes with Quebec films. Louise will be greatly missed at Telefilm, and I wish her every success in her future projects.”
