Thank you, Mr. Chair.
You said--I hope I wrote this down correctly--that when you make films you actually want to see, there's no need for screen quotas. I think you said something along that line.
I'd like to go back to a question I had asked the previous witness with respect to regulation. I realize that you're here in your capacity as president of the Canadian Association of Film Distributors and Exporters, and I do want to get into content in just half a second, but I wonder if you would like to make a comment about the issue of regulation.
In the minds of some people presenting to our committee here, there's still the idea that if only we could regulate, we would get more people watching CBC, or in fact that the regulation of CBC with respect to Canadian content, with respect to all of the issues surrounding the CRTC and those regulations, would make a difference.
If we take your comment, about making films you actually want to see, and the testimony by the previous witness, about his family of four teenagers making choices, I would suggest that when people make choices, they will make those choices whether there are regulations in place or not. And with the Internet, there is serious question as to whether regulation is in fact even possible now.
So in this dialogue we're having with respect to CBC, I wonder if you would like to comment on my comments about the place for regulation.
