I can answer your question.
When the pandemic was declared, we put emergency funds in place. We had done a survey and we received this type of feedback from our conversations with stakeholders about needs.
When the 2020‑21 estimates were announced, we established two funds, the recovery fund for arts, culture, heritage and sport sectors and the reopening fund. We were very aware of the situation. We contacted the stakeholders through our regional offices to ensure that they were aware of all the funds available and that there wasn't any confusion.
In addition, we obviously worked closely with other departments that also established funds. We kept our colleagues in the provinces and territories informed of our funds. We could inform stakeholders of the funds that they could access if the province or territory were unable to meet their needs.
