Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen.
Ms. Marlene, you said earlier on that there were too many American programs. Last night, someone came to the microphone to say that they no longer saw themselves in the current programming. You then spoke about funding to produce Canadian programs.
Could you tell us about the scope of the problem? You must have the figures to indicate what percentage of American programs are on the air here, in Newfoundland, as opposed to Canadian programs. How much money have you lost over the last few years in terms of dramatic productions or Canadian programs?
I'm not sure if I'm putting my question well. We no longer see ourselves reflected, there are too many American shows. In my opinion, it is an issue of culture, of protecting culture. Do you agree? What figures could we see to demonstrate that there is indeed an overwhelming number of American programs?
