Compared to state involvement in other areas where it doesn't belong these numbers are rounding errors but I am opposed to all state funding and subsidization of the arts, which are essentially the taxing of people likely uninterested in the art of the recipient to subsidize those who are likely more capable of paying the full cost. I play in 3 and sometimes 4 community-based bands (concert and swing/jazz bands) and none receive a penny from government, and I pay dues for the pleasure..

I believe that government/public supporting the arts in Canada is a good idea. Implementing that idea seems to often be messed up by politicians' ideologically motivated fumblings.

I feel like the answer is, in a word, no.

One thing that makes me wonder about the CMF is that almost all of the funded programs in their database are listed as dramas. Schitts Creek -drama. Son of a Critch - drama. Letterkenny- drama.

Like our present Government you cover what is being done for CANADA. I believe that things should be done for CANADIANS, I would like to send you a paper covering anew Economic Parsdigm and a talk that preceeded its composition ( NO AI) . I do not know how to attach them to this comment but will attach to an email. Send me an email and I will attach the files to a deply. eddtwohug902@gmail.com
