Thank you, Madam Chair.
Ms. Pilon, you clearly understand how important it is to broadcast Canadian stories and support Canadian artists. If certain members of this committee achieve their goal of defunding CBC/Radio-Canada, we will lose a major part of our ability to support local talent and to share those stories from a personal and professional standpoint.
Would you please explain why defunding CBC/Radio-Canada would be so harmful to our country's film industry?
