Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Welcome.
In recent years, the mandate of Telefilm Canada has expanded, particularly with regard to multimedia, but the amounts allocated to the Crown corporation have remained the same. At the same time, production costs continue to increase year after year.
Does the Department of Canadian Heritage believe that it is important to provide the Quebec and Canadian film industry with adequate support? In other words, does Canadian Heritage believe that it is important to increase funding to Telefilm Canada, which is the lead agency for this sector?
