“We want to help Canadian artists and local productions without passing extra costs on to Canadians. During this crisis, we are working to protect people from paying unnecessary fees.”
“Mr. Speaker, I greatly appreciate my colleague’s questions. I do not think that the question he is asking has a set answer. What we have been saying for a while is that we are working to ensure that we do not add any costs that would be passed on to Canadians. The goal is to help our artists and to keep and protect productions in Canada. The goal is not to make Canadians’ lives more complicated, but really to ensure that no costs are passed on to them. I think that my colleague would also agree that, during a crisis that we did not ask for and that we are currently experiencing across Canada, we must protect Canadians. We want to make sure that Canadians do not continue to pay unnecessary fees. That is what our government is doing.”
