I'm asking you this, because the core mission of the Canada Council and of culture in general is to contribute to the development of Canadians and Quebeckers. However, some people don't seem to understand that this is important. They don't understand the meaning of these numbers. So then, without question, we need to emphasize how very important it is to invest in culture and the arts. But it is equally important to provide us with the statistics to support our argument for providing equal, if not, more funding to this sector.
