Okay. That answers my question. I want to get to my point as quickly as possible.
I consider CPAC a public good, meaning a necessity for Canadian democracy. If your current funding comes only from cable companies, which are declining and will continue to do so, then obviously we need to find another solution to ensure that Canadians can access their democracy. This democracy is mainly here in Ottawa. You must be able to report on the conventions of each political party in a neutral manner, as you said earlier. In my opinion, this is fundamental. I believe that the country must have an independent body that promotes Canadian democracy.
You spoke about $5 million a year for three years, as well as $8 million to renew your equipment. You said that your current budget is $13 million. You're asking for substantial amounts of money.
Since we know that your revenue will continue to decline, do you think that the Government of Canada should fund 100% of CPAC's activities?
