EditCon 2026: This Year in Canadian Film

Today's episode is a panel from EditCon 2026 that took place in February 2026.

Canadian independent films, with their unique funding structures, have fostered a new wave of distinct cinematic voices. From coast to coast, Canadian film editors have shaped a diverse array of stories that reflect the country's rich tapestry of characters, narratives, and forms. Many of these films have shone on international stages and in theatres across the nation.

We are thrilled to welcome three prolific editors: Kurt Walker, behind the multi-award-winning BLUE HERON; Amélie Labrèche, known for the dreamy and theatrical LE TRAIN; and Brendan Mills, editor of the TIFF-selected 100 SUNSET.

This panel was moderated by Justin Lachance, CCE
