Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Fraser, I would like you to clarify something that you said earlier. In answer to a question from a Conservative member, I believe, you said that funding is provided, but not until the financial year is underway. For example, funding is provided in January or in February, leaving only a short period of time for it to be spent. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that is not the case. The Canadian Press said, and I quote:
In addition to underfunding, a number of organizations complain that Canadian Heritage funding often arrives three or four months late.
That means that the problem is not that the funding comes through in January and has to be spent by the following January.
