The coming expansion is quite dependent on some of the strangest things that you wouldn't really think about first, and they are core services, things like potable water and waste water. At the moment, there is a moratorium on new building in the area we're in, so we're working to have the physical ability to expand our area.
Many of the professional artists who perform on our stage have to travel 100 kilometres each day to come to do their performance, because we quite literally don't have a place for them to stay. That's been a bit of a challenge, and of course, Canada, as it continues to develop our area.... We've seen it over the past 100 years. As an example, 90% of Albertans lived on farms and in a rural setting, and 10% in the urban centres, and now all that's swapped. The urban centres are 90%, and the rural are 10%.
Some of those challenges are the distances, but I think our longevity shows that the need for arts and culture for Canadians to enjoy, no matter what their setting, is extremely important.
