Thank you for the question, Mr. Champoux.
It's certainly the case that the proposed model is based on the current model, because we have no other points of reference at the moment. We therefore focused on the way in which broadcasters have to contribute to Canadian content right now. In some cases, they are required to invest a certain portion of their income in Canadian content. In other cases, the contribution goes to production funds, like the Canada Media Fund, or with music, to funding development initiatives.
We looked at determining what each of the services, such as Netflix, would match with. In some cases, it really wasn't easy to determine. For example, is Spotify a traditional radio broadcaster or a gatekeeper that has to contribute to a production fund? So we came up with 16 scenarios to cover all possibilities. The $830 million we mentioned is the average. The lowest estimate was $750 million and the highest was around $900 million.
The important point with this model is that we can look at significant contributions to Canadian content. Of course, we have no guarantees as to the way in which the CRTC is going to implement the new regulatory framework, but it gives us an idea of the revenue that we are looking at raising.
