Thank you , ladies and gentlemen. Your presence here today is very important.
We are studying Canada’s 150th anniversary, but we will also devote several meetings to museums and their financial health. We will be hearing from museum representatives.
My first question is for Mr. McAvity, of the Canadian Museums Association.
Do you think that the federal government should adopt a national museums policy to ensure the health of our museums? If it does, what should it include?
