Ladies and gentlemen, a word about us.
Artisti is a collective management society created by the Union des artistes in 1997. It is the collective copyright management society for French-speaking performers in the field of sound recording.
First, let me emphasize that the Copyright Act is one of the most effective tools we have to ensure the remuneration of artists and to share the wealth that their creations generate.
That said, the act has not changed much over the years. Many of its provisions are now out of step with the context in which performing artists work. We are proposing six recommendations that are intended to make the law fairer and more in tune with reality.
Ms. Morin, you may continue.
