The Vancouver Film Critics Circle (VFCC) was founded in 2000 by David Spaner and Ian Caddell, in order to help promote Canadian films and the British Columbia film and television industry. Its membership includes print, radio, on-line, and television critics, either based in Vancouver or with Vancouver outlets. The current Chair of the VFCC is Jorge Ignacio Castillo, editor in chief of the web platform The Canadian Crew.
