Thank you for your questions, Mr. Bélanger.
I, too, have met with a number of groups since August. It seems to me that, in the speech I made to the Canadian Association of Broadcasters — or CAB — our government's commitment was quite clear. There are certainly new technologies available and people demanding that market forces play a dominant role, but there is also an important item which we believe in: our quality Canadian programming. I obviously invited people to give greater thought to these realities. Every time this question has been put to me, I have never denied the fact that there are market forces, but I have most certainly emphasized the fact that we are committed to providing quality Canadian programming.
You refer to a committee looking at competitiveness and foreign ownership. Our government has no intention of changing anything with respect to foreign ownership; I can assure you of that.
I'm trying to go quickly so that I can answer all your questions.
You also referred to postal fees for publications. The government issued a policy directive last year, if I'm not mistaken, asking Canada Post to continue with the program until March of 2009. We are currently looking at this. We know that the publications sector, whether it's community newspapers or magazines, will want to comment on this, and we will most certainly be anxious to hear what they have to say.
Mr. Blais may want to add something with respect to the competitiveness committee.
