Thank you, Madam Chair.
I thank the witnesses for being with us today.
My next question is for Ms. Tarlton.
According to your purchasing policy, you want to limit the number of tickets that can be bought through this type of transaction, in order to discourage unfair ticket purchasing practices. I am using the Ticketmaster terms here.
Last September, CBC/Radio-Canada and Toronto Star reporters attended a conference where they met Ticketmaster representatives. They were promoting a tool known as TradeDesk. It seems that that tool helps the resellers to purchase several hundreds or even thousands of tickets at once. This made the first page of the newspapers. If one looks at the service fees applied to each sale or resale of tickets, one can conclude that that practice is very lucrative.
I have two questions for you. What is Ticketmaster's position regarding the resale of show tickets? How does the TradeDesk tool work?
