Thank you very much, Chair. I appreciate the opportunity.
Thank you for being here. Welcome to the committee.
We heard from many of the deputants about in-person attendance in the performing arts subsector of the larger sector as a whole, and how it was really hit hard during the pandemic.
I know the department put in place a program, the Canadian performing arts workers resilience fund. There were other initiatives as well that were put in place to help mitigate some of the negative impacts on the sector because of COVID.
Can you talk a little about the performing arts sector and that in-person issue?
