Thank you very much.
Usually at the end of some of these, I have to get my two cents' worth in. Here are just a couple of things I've realized today; correct me if I'm wrong.
You'd like to see the silos taken out to give a little more flexibility, so that when the occasion comes along you're not stuck with a whole pile over here and can't move it over there. That's one thing. As for policy review, it's been a long time since the policy of Telefilm has been looked at.
I'd like to congratulate you for bringing the stakeholders together around the table and getting a consensus. That's a great step forward. When we did our study a little over a year ago of the feature film industry, I wouldn't have known how you would get all those different factions to sit around and even come anywhere near a consensus. So I congratulate you for that.
Again, long-term sustainable funding is something we hear about around this table from just about every organization or group that ever comes in. I think it has to also include the private sector. I know the cable companies.... There's various other funding that has to go forward, and I think those things should go.
Right on: bricks and mortar don't make films. I think that was a great move. It'll only take money away from film production.
I use a little example in my hometown, in Stratford, where I live. I live outside of Stratford, but I still call Stratford my hometown. There was a new Children's Aid Society building put in there. I don't know how many millions of dollars were spent on it, and not one of those dollars helped a foster child. I don't like to see those big bureaucracies built, as that was.
But my very last thing is that when you talk about Bon Cop Bad Cop, that Colm Feore is one of my constituents, and I know him quite well.
Thank you again for your presentations today and the answers you've put forward to everyone around this table.
The meeting is adjourned.
