On the contrary, I think this study is directly related to the future of the CBC. It is entitled “Digital and Emerging Media: Opportunities and Challenges”. It is clear that Canada's public broadcaster, which broadcasts programming in both official languages, is directly affected by a study of this nature and by the new reality that is emerging. At the very least, I would like to have CBC officials appear before the committee to discuss the corporation's future and how it will be impacted by digital and emerging media. At the same time, we could also discuss vertical integration. Given the unique universe in which the public broadcaster is evolving, I would like to hear from these officials and get their take on the corporation's current situation and needs.
