No. We're talking private property here. The rights to those films are held by the distributors when it comes to retail sales, for example. It's up to them to promote and sell their titles. They're not government owned.
I will make a note of that excellent question, the idea of establishing incentives to facilitate access for Canadians to those titles. We could definitely do better, that's for sure.
You also have to understand that the retail market for DVD sales is largely made up of big box stores like Wal-Mart, Future Shop, etc. Their business model is to choose only blockbusters. They don't have a very large number of titles. The reality of our market makes life difficult not only for Canadian films but also for independent films, even US independent films, to a large degree. That reality often causes a problem for the consumer in search of something different. In view of online purchases, Internet offers an avenue that did not exist previously. Could that be better structured, better organized? No doubt.
