The CBC series ZARQA, which just finished shooting Season 2 in Regina, is part of a renewed commitment to film and TV in the province.

The restoration of that investment came through the Creative Saskatchewan Feature Film and Television Production Grant Program, which received another $2 million injection this spring and is now worth $12 million annually.It was also announced this spring that Saskatchewan would receive an additional $900,000 in federal funding to help train and mentor aspiring media production workers.

Actor and creator Zarqa Nawaz receives a touchup on the Regina set before filming a scene for Season 2 of her self-titled series, ZARQA.Nawaz, who’s also an author, public speaker and former journalist, is best known as the award-winning creator of Little Mosque on the Prairie, a groundbreaking sitcom that ran on CBC from 2007 to 2012 .
