In any case, Minister, you can take much longer than two minutes, as this is the last round of questions. Don't be shy.
You probably heard about the report featured last week on Enquête about Live Nation, a U.S. company that is often accused of having established something of a monopoly in the ticketing and show production industry.
We know that the company is a 49% shareholder of Evenko, a major producer of shows and festivals here. We also see that the presence of an American multinational, with Ticketmaster and Live Nation, has a serious impact on the entertainment and festival industry, not only in Montreal, but throughout the major festivals industry.
Do you have any thoughts on that? I ask because it's extremely concerning to see that small venues, which are trying to hold their own, especially in the Quartier des spectacles and around Montreal, are in extremely precarious situations because of the rules that these large, extremely dominant companies are putting in place.
