Yes, I agree, and I tried to make that point before by saying that preserving rural areas and giving them access to technology may not be what the market wants to do because it's not profitable, so we subsidize it because we think it's important.
Certainly we think culture is important. We think minority culture is important. The question is, how do we want to support it?
Do we think that by discouraging foreign ownership we are in fact supporting it? The point I made earlier was that a privately owned Canadian company has the same concerns about providing unprofitable services as a foreign-owned company in Canada. It's the job of the government to provide those public services, including culture, through the tax system, or if you want—which is second best—through regulation, but those regulations would apply to everyone.
A U.S.-owned company doing business in Canada would have to contribute to the Canadian broadcasting fund, the same as a Canadian company would.
