Canadian Heritage committee  I'm sorry, what was the question?

Canadian Heritage committee  One of the biggest problems with Canadian content development funding is just deciding whose money it is. We have always taken the position that once Canadian content development money is there, it should really belong to the music industry. That's something that is still unclear.

Canadian Heritage committee  I'm hearing you in English right now.

Canadian Heritage committee  Could I jump in here?

Canadian Heritage committee  Wonderful. I totally agree with what Shauna is saying. I think the existing programs are great. Thank you for continuing to support those. As I said, I do think there is a gap that has been created because of the industry at a regional level. I think artists need more artist development so that they're more attractive to labels like Shauna's and to the majors and others.

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman. My name is Bob D'Eith, I'm the executive director of Music BC. I'm also the acting chair of the Canadian Council of Music Industry Associations. To give you a bit of background, Music BC is a provincial music industry association. We provide advocacy, artist development, music business education programs, networking opportunities, export marketing initiatives, and funding resources.

Canadian Heritage committee  Everything is done at your end.

Canadian Heritage committee  It's okay. It just went to English. Don't start again, it's all good.
