Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you for coming. I'm going to be very quick because I'm trying to hit most of you.
Just so the opera folks know, the same ask has come from a number of arts groups. I know you've kind of coordinated it. I'm sure CanDance, which is coming next, will ask for the same thing.
I'm interested in pursuing number two to see where that goes. I'm not sure asking for a $40-million increase this year in the Canada Council is realistic, but I can understand why you put it out there.
I have a question for Mr. Oberman on the designated homes...and I'm familiar with this chiefly because I was on LACAC in Burlington.
Is it designated homes only, or...? We tried to get a heritage district when I was on council and we basically got thrown out of the neighbourhood for trying to do a heritage district, which I was very much in favour of.
Who do you expect to be able to track that benefit that you're talking about?
