Industry committee To my knowledge, and I am certainly not an expert in indigenous dance, that is more of a verbal passing on of the legacy of the dance—

Industry committee —and there are knowledge keepers who keep those dances. It's quite a different system.

Industry committee To my knowledge, no jurisdiction is currently offering royalties on these movements, these emotes that are happening in video games. The point I was trying to make is that the definition of choreographic work needs to be a little more flexible and not so much focused on narrative

Industry committee When Beyoncé liberally borrowed from De Keersmaeker, the industry celebrated. There was a lot of attention on esoteric contemporary dance, more interest and probably exactly what you said; more tickets purchased and more focus on that artist.

Industry committee There isn't much currently, to be honest. I absolutely adore the Guelph contemporary dance festival. I lived in Guelph for a couple of years so I'm really glad you brought it up. A contemporary dance artist, choreographer or company would go into a contract with the festival, fo

Industry committee Yes, but I would really like to hear Patrick's and Elizabeth's opinion on this, because this is certainly not my area of expertise.
October 15th, 2018Committee meeting
Kate Cornell
Industry committee I think that by broadening the definition of dance to include digital platforms and possibly referencing video games, you could get at this specificity that you're talking about. I'm so glad that you brought it up because there is definitely attention to the fact that this is fal

Industry committee Thank you so much for the opportunity to speak today on behalf of the Canadian Dance Assembly. I represent the Canadian Dance Assembly, a national service organization, and we partner with 10 provincial dance organizations to serve the dance sector, which includes hundreds of co

Canadian Heritage committee Absolutely. As I mentioned in the beginning, I have about 100 member organizations. I don't have exact statistics, but I can definitely get you those numbers. For example, Les Grands Ballets Canadiens I believe has close to 30 temporary foreign workers.

Canadian Heritage committee I can certainly speak to my members and get the exact number for you.

Canadian Heritage committee We're a really interesting NASO. When I sit in a room with my colleagues from the Canadian Arts Coalition, we're one of the only National Arts Service Organizations that services both individuals and organizations. We have partnered with ACTRA Fraternal Benefit Society in providi
