In conclusion, I want to say that, in 2002-2003, the Publications Assistance Program gave $10 million to Rogers Communications; $9 million to Transcontinental; and $2.5 million to Quebecor. It gave much less than $1 million to all francophone publications outside Quebec; we are talking here about 26 publications. This doesn't make sense to me.
I want to reiterate what the APF told you two and a half years ago: a number of publications outside Quebec are now dying a slow but programmed death. Over the past two years, things have only gotten worse. I wonder when things will change.
