I think I've had that once or twice, but I haven't applied that many times. I've been on about ten CDs of people who have applied and have been successful. As I said before, a lot of my work is to conduct sound design with modern dance and theatre, but I have been a practising musician for that long, and this is what I do. I'm in research and development. I create music with people, cutting-edge music using new ideas, and we are the place that most pop musicians listen to in order to get their ideas. I'll be quite simple about it, because I know people in the field. I know pop musicians. They're friends of mine, and when they're not playing pop music, which a lot of them consider work, they're listening to the music from the field of music I create in, the avant garde or instrumental music, just because that's where new sounds are created.
Also, I don't feel the government understands the value of marketing the Canadian brand this way, because there are multi-level ways you can approach the world in terms of what Canada is. We have world-class artists and musicians. You have one sitting over there. Jesse's an amazing player. We're known internationally. And we're not known internationally because the government is really out there helping us; it's because we are doing it ourselves. Therefore, we're very good at it, so you should give us more money.
