It's a good point, Mr. Simms, but I prefer the national museum because it is permanent. A film is something that is hot for a few years and then it sits on a shelf and people forget about it. A museum is a lasting, standing monument that people can visit, that people can take pride in, that all Canadians can take pride in.
Across the United States, 75 museums are devoted to African American history. There's a huge African American museum being built in Washington at the cost of $500 million. Are our heroes any less? Are the contributions that African Canadians made to this country any less? Sure, our numbers are smaller than the United States. But the oppression we underwent and survived, the contributions we made in building and developing this country are just as fantastic. That's why I would prefer to see a museum as opposed to a film, even though I'm in the film business, because of the longevity of the testament.
