Thank you for your question.
I remember very well the 2019 Senate report on cultural diplomacy. We agreed with almost all of its recommendations.
We value cultural diplomacy. When I was a diplomat in Havana several years ago, we did a lot of it. It's like the parliamentary diplomacy we talked about before.
But it does cost money. It's not free. We need resources to send Les Grands Ballets Canadiens overseas, for example.
At the moment, the department must prioritize the essentials, that is to say invest in staff first.
