Help CARFAC bring the ARR to Canada

The Artist’s Resale Right would allow visual artists to receive 5% when their work is resold – just as they do in at least 94 other countries. CARFAC has been advocating for an Artist’s Resale Right (ARR) for many years. Here is a summary of our proposal.

The ARR is a royalty that enables artists to share in the wealth they create. It is particularly beneficial for Indigenous and Senior Artists, aligns Canada with many of our international trade partners, and it is one of many ways the Federal government can help visual artists recover from the Pandemic and prosper for years to come.
CARFAC and RAAV have been busy meeting with the Federal Government about ARR for several months, and momentum is growing. There is still so much to do, and your support is crucial. Support of any kind is greatly appreciated!
