Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for appearing here today.
One of the things raised as a concern is the issue around exemptions. Wouldn't it make sense to have, for example, exemptions for aboriginal bands and not-for-profit community groups that have been traditionally using inukshuks and other symbols in part of their promotions on a regular basis? Maybe a third party, such as the City of Whistler or the City of Vancouver, could then issue licences or have a fee for licences for those groups. I understand that as the legislation is written right now, there's nothing compelling VANOC to have to actually deal with that. I'm sure they would probably want to do so, but given what's going to be descending on the Olympics, having an independent ability outside the process to issue those licences might be beneficial for all parties involved.
