This question is for Ms. Kinloch and Mr. Lloyd. You provided some information that the average salary of a writer or artist is about $33,000 in Canada, which isn't a very impressive number. It's a tough life for an artist in this country. Writers have it even worse. We've been told in multiple testimonies that it's about $13,000 a year for a writer. I just want to get your perspective, and possibly with some concrete examples, or even anecdotes, of people whom you know or have interacted with, Canadian artists or authors. What is the impact of fair use on your cultural—and I hate the use the word “industry” because it really is a passion, but I'm going to use it—industry? Where do you see the future of your industry if these problems aren't addressed properly?
