Thank you.
I'm so glad we are talking about copyright here, because it is an issue of IP. I have had more experience in this realm, because, as you were saying, I've seen my copyright payments really slashed over the last few years. Fortunately for me, I have never written books to make a living, but I know friends of mine, constituents of mine, do depend on those payments to make a living, and it has been very difficult.
I'd like to get a clarification on what you said about Quebec. From what I understood from your last statements, the Quebec government has stepped up to pay Quebec authors these copyright payments, but outside Quebec is where we've seen the losses.
