Mr. Speaker, yesterday evening, ADISQ, the Association québécoise de l'industrie du disque, du spectacle et de la vidéo, celebrated its 20th anniversary at the Molson Centre, in Montreal.
During this time, ADISQ, which works on behalf of Quebec's popular music industry and whose existence is proof of the industry's vitality, spared no efforts to promote Quebec's talent and have it recognized.
The Bloc Quebecois is proud to have worked closely with ADISQ to have neighbouring rights recognized in the federal legislation on copyright.
We hope the federal government will soon include the rights of creators and performers, as part of phase III of the review of the Copyright Act.
Culture has always been a priority for the Bloc Quebecois, and for the Quebec government, as demonstrated by the commitments it made yesterday.
Long live the ADISQ gala, and congratulations to the winners and to all the nominees. Each and everyone of them contributes to the vitality and the richness of Quebec culture.
