Thank you.
Mr. McAvity, earlier, funding allocated to culture was discussed. Yet we are about to spend $25 million on a significant change. As I already said, many small museums need money.
Don't you think those funds could have rather been used directly to help smaller museums? We have to wonder about that, especially if we compare Canadian museums' budgets for 2013-14.
The budgets for that period total $57.4 million. However, prior to the recession, that amount was $62.4 million. Some budgets have increased since, but in the case of museums, the budgets are tighter than they were before the recession.
Don't you think that money could have been spent more intelligently?
