Good evening, everyone. Welcome to the 63rd meeting of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are undertaking a full investigation of the role of a public broadcaster in the 21st century.
This evening we welcome the Alliance for Children and Television, the Independent Media Arts Alliance, the English Language Arts Network, and the Documentary Organisation of Canada.
Welcome, folks. We'll go in order for the presentations. If we could keep our presentations relatively close to ten minutes or so, that would be great, but we haven't got a timer on it. We're interested in hearing what you have to say.
Mr. Moss, would you'd like to go first, please?
