Mr. Speaker, today saw another urgent plea for the government to abandon its policy to allow unfettered media concentration. This plea came from 40 of Canada's greatest journalists, sponsored by the Southams, one of our greatest newspaper families. They want tax incentives for media companies that preserve journalistic independence, measures to promote journalistic freedom, and stronger tax policies to protect our culture from foreign ownership.
These measures have to come from the government. They are outside the terms of the standing committee study on broadcasting.
Will the government act on these measures now?
