Thank you.
Mr. Lauzon, we’ve talked many times over the years. I was interested in how you define copyright. Perhaps it's simplistic, but at its root you said that copyright is a payment, a fundamental right that is at the heart of what we're talking about. It's who gets paid and when they get paid.
I've been noticing at our committee hearings that my colleagues in the Conservative Party call copyright a tax. They use “tax” all the time. They say that it's not fair to business, yet when we're talking about the ephemeral exemption that's being created, it seems that on something that has been adjudicated by the Copyright Board, which has defined the right to be paid as the $20 million that musicians, artists, and publishers receive, they want to use an exemption to deny people who have been adjudicated at the Copyright Board the right to be paid.
Do you believe it's the role of government to intervene at the Copyright Board and say that not only will you not get the $20 million, but while we’re at it, we’ll be taking the $30 million you received for the digital levy? They'll be taking $50 million and will intervene in your business model and say that it's fair. What is the feeling of the members of SODRAC?
