Thank you, Mr. Chair.
To all of our witnesses, thank you for your testimony, for coming today to speak about issues that you all feel very passionate about, and for helping us with our work.
To specifically Lou-ann Neel, the Canadian ballet or dance association—I'm not sure which one—was in here. They talked about an area that's quite important to me, which is that individual artists should be able to copyright choreographed movements in sequences. I used to be a martial arts instructor. I do share concerns about movements that have been passed on for generations. Having individual ownership of those choreographed movements may be an issue.
When someone does a choreographed dance, say, based on traditional ways and knowledge, do you feel they should be able to own copyright on that choreography, or do you think that is something that we should not permit as copyrighted material?
