Mr. Speaker, when I became heritage minister, I said from the outset that the budget decisions regarding culture had already been taken.
I must add that, if we take, for example, the case of the NFB in Montreal, the Juneau report points out the most effective way to modernize the NFB. This is precisely what is now being done by the executive committee. That said, I was also assured by the Minister of Finance that the government will go ahead with a culture fund that will make possible the creation of a new system of funding for the production of Canadian cultural initiatives under circumstances that will be announced very shortly.
