We're giving away $1,000 from VIA Rail to celebrate National Canadian Film Day 150 (CONTEST)

National Canadian Film Day 150 (NCFD 150) is coming up on April 19 and the celebrations will be huge.

With 1,700 screenings happening around the country and at consulates, embassies and military bases worldwide, as well as the option for Canadians to tune into multiple Canadian broadcast stations and online platforms on April 19, the one-day event is being billed as “the world’s largest film festival ever, and the most accessible film festival our country has seen.”

In Toronto alone, there will be 145 (and counting) screenings on the big day. But you don’t have to celebrate NCFD 150 here in Toronto, Daily Hive is giving away $1,000 from VIA Rail to take the train anywhere in Canada, so you can watch a film anywhere in the country!

Share your favourite Canadian film in the comments on Facebook for your chance to win.

*This contest closes April 17, 2017 at midnight EST
