A quote,

VANCOUVER รณ Walt Disney Co.’s move to take on the $10-billion (U.S.) video game industry by launching a new development studio in Vancouver solidifies British Columbia’s status as a leading production centre in North America.

Disney’s Buena Vista Games subsidiary is opening in Vancouver at a time when the province is already home to nearly 150 video game companies, including the Canadian subsidiary of Electronic Arts Inc., the sector’s leading company.
