Yes, absolutely.
As we said in our presentation, the Broadcasting Act is responsible for the small miracle we are witnessing in Quebec. In Quebec, half of the music purchased by consumers is francophone. We have Quebec and francophone music on the radio, on satellite radio, on Stingray, on television, and so on. So we can say that our soundscape, or what we might call the soundtrack of our lives, is in our language. It has all the accents of home, in all their diversity.
So extending the application of the Broadcasting Act to online services is simply a matter of continuity. It's not a matter of affecting demand, what people consume. We have never forced people to buy records in the shops. It's not that at all. We don't want to prevent people from listening to what they want to listen to. If they want to listen to things from other countries, that's fine. We just need to make sure that among the content offered, highlighted or recommended by the platforms, there is local content. In fact, I think this can be seen as an extraordinary opportunity. Wouldn't personalization of content and algorithms allow more local content to be discovered by the right people? I'm sure that the platforms would be able to make extraordinary matches for us and allow people who like Québécois metal, for example, to discover it.
Commercial radio stations, for example, have often been criticized for being a bit restrictive in what they offer from Quebec. Last year, 900 records were released in Quebec. Every week, 15 to 30 music videos by Quebec artists are broadcast on the PalmarèsADISQ platform. I'm sure they all have an audience that might like to discover them. All we're asking is that an effort be made so that the platforms recognize that this content exists and that people like it.
I repeat that in a survey by Léger, a very well-known polling firm, we asked people who consume streaming music if they like to be offered local content, and 70% of them said yes. So it's not just a handful of people who are asking for that, it's the people of Quebec who are saying they like to be exposed to diverse content and they want to continue to do that online and not just on the radio.
