I will say a few words, and perhaps my deputy minister will have something to add.
Obviously, a change was made to the program this year, because it was important to have conditions allowing all urban municipalities to benefit from it. Last year, more than 50% of the grants went to large cities: Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. This year, it was possible to subsidize 29 other festivals from other cities throughout the country.
I believe it is important that we have diversity and that it be possible to share throughout the country and with the other festivals in Quebec. This year, we are able to offer grants in areas where it was impossible to invest last year.
Perhaps my deputy minister might respond as well.
