Thank you very much.
Thank you to all of our witnesses. I'm going to try to do my best here on behalf of Mr. Julian with Bill C-18. I do appreciate everyone's feedback on this bill.
Ms. Charette, I'd like to start with you.
I was taking some notes as you made your opening statement, and I can very much relate to the concerns that you have and the willingness that you show to maintain a strong and diverse mediascape in Quebec, but I think that also applies to many regions in Canada as well. I know we've been hearing from the FNCC and many stakeholders that Bill C-18 has set out too restrictive criteria for news media companies to be eligible for negotiations with the web giants.
I have a couple of questions for you. First, what would happen to thousands of small news media companies, many of which are non-profit organizations, such as community radio and community TV in Canada and Quebec, if Bill C-18's eligibility thresholds remain unchanged?
