Thank you.
Perhaps I can begin with the artists formally known as ACTRA. At some point during the debate in the House of Commons, the idea was pointed out that there is a lot of employment in different regions in the film sector, and that this service industry has a value that seems over and above the Canadian content, or at least equal.
I'm wondering what you might want to say to that, because some of the response I heard was, “What's the issue? In my community, I have films that are being filmed right now, right here in my community, creating a lot of jobs, including for a certain number of Canadians.”
I'd like you to have an opportunity to respond to those comments.
