Canadian Identity and Culture

During question period on Canadian identity and culture, the Bloc Québécois raised the government’s decision to have the CRTC drop levies on American online streaming platforms, saying the government is breaking its own Broadcasting Act and shifting the cost of culture funding to taxpayers, since public money could be cut by any future government; the Bloc asked the government to restore the levy to protect Quebec and French-language culture. Marc Miller replied for the Liberals that the government never said it would amend the Broadcasting Act, and pointed to Liberal members’ record of voting for culture and what he called historic investments in culture.Written by AI from the debate.
