Thank you, John. That was what I was going to go to next. We do have bells, but we also have witnesses who need to leave at a certain time. If we all agree to that, it would be so good and efficient and effective.
Again, I want to ask everyone to please obey the Board of Internal Economy's dictum to wear a mask when you are in the room with your colleagues. Thank you.
Now we're going to begin with the witness list we have here. The first witness is l'Association des réalisateurs et réalisatrices du Québec. We have two people present, but I hope everyone understands that only one of you may present or both of you may share the presentation time.
We have the Canadian Arts Coalition and la Fédération culturelle canadienne-française. Then we have Gonez Media, and we have La Société professionnelle des auteurs et des compositeurs du Québec.
Each witness or each witness group has five minutes to present.
I will give you a one-minute yell, to cut through the noise, so that you know you have one more minute to finish what you're saying. If you don't finish what you have to say in five minutes, you will be able to elaborate as you get questions from the committee itself.
With that having been said, I will ask the Association des réalisateurs et réalisatrices du Québec to begin. Please indicate who will be speaking, and whether you will be sharing your five minutes.
Please begin.
