Wayne LongLiberal

Canadian Heritage committee  With respect to you guys, is it the same with .com and .ca? What's the presence in the United States versus Canada?

Canadian Heritage committee  Okay. Ms. Tarlton, I was reading some articles and there was one where Irving Azoff, former CEO, was at a congressional hearing in the States. I'll just quote what we said with respect to secondary ticket sales. He said, “I never would have bought it. The whole secondary sales a

Canadian Heritage committee  It sells tickets for performances in the arts and bands and all that kind of stuff. Those are two separate markets, I recognize. For example, with respect to the New England Patriots, is it safe to say that you're the official ticket seller for the Patriots?

Canadian Heritage committee  How does Ticketmaster proceed that way? Does Ticketmaster approach sports teams or musicians and ask to be their ticket seller? Do you aggressively go after teams? Do teams come after you? How does that dynamic work?

Canadian Heritage committee  Thank you, Madam Chair. Good afternoon and thank you for coming in this afternoon. It's very interesting. I do come at this from a unique perspective.

Canadian Heritage committee  And then what's most interesting is that in that instance with us at Harbour Station, the promoter at the last minute released a whole bunch of tickets and then there was chaos. There were people who were upset, who overbought. There were tickets back on the market. One of the p
