I am not the one who said that. Witnesses who appeared before the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage pointed that out. They are saying that our copyright legislation protects artists and takes care of their need to make piracy illegal in Canada. We impose the WIPO Internet treaties, we protect artists' interests regarding electronic devices, and we protect the investments in the Canada Council for the Arts and in our museums. Under Budget 2012, we have increased the financial aid to our museums across the country to $3 billion.
I think that the appointments made at the Canada Council for the Arts and other cultural organizations have been effective and responsible. They have met regional needs. Debates will certainly be held in regions across the country regarding the best way to protect, invest in and establish policies on culture. That much is certain, but it doesn't mean that you are against culture or that I am against culture. We can have different opinions about this.
