I see now that there is an explosion of indigenous music, and the economics behind it.... It's becoming an important part of the Canadian music industry. It is also being exported across the world right now.
My partner is a throat singer. We work with many throat singers and that's the most clear example of how.... When these songs and these things are being reproduced in the classical world, and all of the different music worlds, I know that there needs to be specific attention put to indigenous art forms to protect them and to make sure that artists are getting paid for their work. If a throat singing song is sampled in a song in Germany, there must be protections in place to protect indigenous artists in Canada. That's something that can often get forgotten in the policy world. I think it's very important. It is only going to become more important and more of an issue.
I'm sorry, I'm speaking too much.
