Peace Arch Entertainment ("PAE") was a Canadian motion picture and television production company based in Toronto, Canada with offices in Los Angeles and Vancouver. The company produced and acquired feature films and television programs for worldwide distribution.
Founded in 1981 as a home entertainment distributor, Peace Arch Entertainment got its name from the famous Peace Arch monument located on the Canada/US Border near Blaine, Washington. Much like the monument represents an "open door" policy between the United States and Canada, PAE sought to promote the same form of unity within the company.
Peace Arch Entertainment filed for bankruptcy on May 16, 2013.
