Philosophy
Poetic Licence Productions Ltd. is comprised of an energetic and ambitious collective of creative people, each committed to producing a new wave of Canadian entertainment. It is our dream to passionately create globally viable programming, and to do it all while paying homage to our homeland.
Originally founded in British Columbia, our team has since migrated eastward to the central hub of Toronto – or as central as we could get. Though the move across the country was a big one, we have even broader plans in mind for Poetic Licence Productions.
We want to broadcast Canadian content to the world, while proving that we have the potential to create high quality media. While we realize this goal, we feel that it is of the utmost importance to create Canadian heroes who can be appreciated on a global scale – and, of course, we want to create enormously entertaining content in the process.
In the coming months and years, we’re looking to form close, prosperous relationships with like-minded companies, and to continue fulfilling our commitment to quality programming with a global mindset.
Our People

Montgomery Bjornson
President & CEO
The founder of Poetic Licence Productions Ltd., Montgomery’s vision for a new breed of Canadian entertainment was the first spark of life for the company. While his education mostly concerned theatre and film, he has extensive experience in marketing, finance and management, qualifications that will no doubt contribute positively to the future of this company. Additionally, Montgomery has been heavily involved with non-profit organizations, and plans to continue that involvement in his latest endeavour with Poetic Licence Productions Ltd.

Chris Luckhardt
Chief Technical Officer
Chris Luckhardt is, to put it simply, the complete package - he's a multi-talented, diversely creative addition to the Poetic Licence family. With a Physics and Astronomy degree under his belt, Chris bears a unique fundamental approach of logic and creativity. He first got into the film industry by starting his own independent film production company in 2005, and now brings a wealth of knowledge and determination into our company. He belongs to an important sect of filmmakers who feel that the future of creative storytelling transcends the current form of distribution, and is destined to expand into online broadcasting. Having said that, we're grateful he's on our team.
