It's interesting. I like the idea of looking in the mirror, indeed. I think it works well at a diplomatic relations level as well.
It's interesting to note that, when funding is received by external parties, we trust them to do certain things for Canadian interests. While they may continue down this path, those perspectives may change as a result of their reporting or whatever work they may do, in this case, a film.
It's a complicated matter that one may need to oversee them. There's just so much funding that we give to so many different entities, NGOs and even supporting entities around the world. It would be very difficult to have that kind of oversight with our small taxpayer income.
