As you probably know, the Canada Media Fund, in terms of content, is provided to a limited number of genres: drama, children's, variety and performing arts, and documentaries. The decision around those genres is a policy decision on the part of the government. Opening up that fund to allow other genres to be eligible, such as news and information programming, would be a policy decision on the part of the government. It's essentially a policy issue.
