Thank you, Minister.
Further along in the budget, we talk about the $150 million for CBC/Radio-Canada, on top of the $42 million that was already topped up. In our region, smaller communities depend a lot on that public funding for CBC because it may be the only shop in town that's delivering news—real news, in my opinion—and playing local music, local talent.
Can you speak further on the importance of providing that funding for those smaller communities that depend on it?
