Mr. Speaker, a month and a half ago, all of Quebec's cultural sectors denounced the void in the government's cultural policy.
Now, the newspaper industry is speaking out. A large coalition of industry representatives published an open letter this morning. They want to know when Ottawa will be offering solutions for print media, which has been in crisis mode for 10 years now. Nearly half of the jobs in this industry have disappeared.
The letter refers to specific solutions, while the minister seems to have only proposed tax breaks for web giants like Google and Facebook.
Does the minister plan on proposing concrete measures to address this crisis, which is a threat to local journalism, our information, and our democracy?
