I want to thank the departmental officials for coming, and for getting the money out as soon as you could. We still have $18 million to send out in the next two months.
The first event that was cancelled was the Juno awards in my city, Saskatoon. March 15, a Sunday, was supposed to be the day for the Junos, and then everything collapsed on March 13.
The city lost more than $9 million because it couldn't host the Junos. How is it going to recoup this money? It had put in over a year and a half of organization to host the Junos, and then the rug was pulled on the Friday night from this event.
I guess that question would go to the deputy minister.
