Canadian Heritage committee  We represent art museum directors. They're the managers of the larger or smaller institutions that present art work--art exhibition performance forums, and so on.

Canadian Heritage committee  There are impacts within the museum community from the travel support programs, but I really can't speak to those issues. I don't have the specifics. I'm sorry about that. I think what you're getting at is interesting, because the issue of management within the arts has developed in a very interesting way over the last 15 years.

Canadian Heritage committee  I'll try to pay attention. Thank you very much for inviting me. I'm here on fairly short notice, and no one can say that government doesn't act quickly when it wants to.

Canadian Heritage committee  I think we received notice on Wednesday last week, but thank you to the clerk for his help in familiarizing me. I'm delighted to be here and to meet you all. I'm here as much to let you know about our organization as to participate in this very interesting dialogue you're engaged in.
