Thank you to all of you for being here.
I really appreciate your raising your voices in this important conversation. You all represent incredibly important players and members who are across our creative industries and whom I think we're all deeply concerned about when it comes to AI and the harms it can cause to individuals who are earning their living and who, in many cases, I think, develop that reputation over many years and with lots of hard work. I empathize with all of your positions. I've read a lot of your submissions and materials in advance. I really appreciate your being here. Let me just start with that.
One thing I keep hearing is conversations on intersecting with copyright. That's fair enough. I get that there are intersections of Bill C-27 and copyright, although we know that Bill C-27 doesn't deal with copyright. The Government of Canada is doing consultations and round tables. They have done seven round tables already.
I want to start by asking each one of you—maybe one representative from each group—if you have been consulted and are participating in the copyright consultation process. The Government of Canada is looking at whether this conversation merits amendments to the Copyright Act as a separate process, but not involved in the scope of this bill.
Ms. Noble or Ms. Kelly, has ACTRA been involved in that consultation?
