Replying to Lisa Hepfner (Liberal)

“Mr. Speaker, I appreciate that the hon. member brought up Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables. I read all of those books when I was a little girl growing up. That was before the Internet, when Canadians were able to talk to each other and find Canadian content. We have heard at heritage committee, over and over again from Canadian artists in every genre, that they would have not made it as far as they did without the supports and the Canadian content rules we have in place today. Does the member opposite believe that it is important to have Canadian culture?”

Mr. Speaker, Claims · 57 wordsof course I believe that. I started my speech by reading from Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables.¹ I believe in Canadian content. I do not believe in the Liberal government choosing which Canadian content should succeed and which should fail, or in forcing tech companies to regurgitate only the content that it chooses as acceptable.
