Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'll be sharing my time with Mr. Myles.
Canada is a richly diverse country, and I'm glad to see the witnesses we have with us.
Mr. Lariviere, as I was listening to you answer questions, I realized how much effort you had put into making your event inclusive, so that everyone could participate.
Our study today is about the state of creative and performance spaces across Canada. Those venues are struggling to fill seats because young people and other audiences aren't going. Often, a bar is set up nearby to attract more people.
What is the main thing you recommend we do to turn things around right away?
