I can't speak directly to a relationship with the Canada Council; if so, it would be very informal. There are some programs within the Canada Council. I think they have a first-time, low-budget, filmmaker program. We have something comparable, but we demand a little more business acumen and set the bar a little higher. So I think the relationship with the Canada Council is nominal.
In the case of the Film Board, the film commissioner sits on the board of Telefilm Canada. I have the pleasure of serving as an ex officio member of the board of the National Film Board. Mr. Bensimon and I therefore have a lot of opportunities to talk about our programs and where we agree and disagree.
We've talked to them about many of the programs we're initiating and plans they have—to go back to one of your earlier points--on how to get into the cinemas. One of the opportunities is digital cinemas. I know in Great Britain, for example, they got a £250 million grant from the lottery fund. They identified approximately 300 cinemas throughout the UK and said, we'll put up the capital costs and install the projectors at no cost to you, but we are going to require a contractual commitment that you will program UK cinema and alternative, independent cinemas. The point was, don't program the Hollywood blockbusters, because they don't need it; they have enough of that. They're doing it in Australia and throughout the European Union. That would be an excellent opportunity.
To be clear, I don't support quotas generally. I think the opportunity for that was about 50 years ago.
