I'm not sure about those numbers and where the 483% comes from. When you go to the Copyright Board, a tariff is set, and that tariff is set for a set period of time. For example, the reproduction royalty was heard recently, in 2010, and that was the first time it had been heard since 2003—seven years prior.
In terms of the rates, when the Copyright Board sets rates, you have predictability and certainty as to what the rate is going to be for a set period of time. What the Copyright Board does is it undertakes an analysis of the particular industry that will be subject to the tariff and determines what is the most appropriate rate base for this particular industry.
In the case of the broadcast mechanical, what was discussed at the Copyright Board by all the parties was that a percentage of advertising revenue would be the most appropriate way to do the royalty calculation. In some cases, it's the square footage of an arena, and in some cases it's a flat rate. So that was determined as a percentage of the share of revenues.
What you have is a situation whereby when the industry is more successful in its use of intellectual property, the creators are rewarded equally as well. The numbers should go lockstep together.
I'm not sure how the number calculation was done, but I'm sure this honourable committee can do the research and dig the numbers right down to the level where you can see where that figure is coming from.
