The Hon. Mme Melanie Joly, the Minister of Canadian Heritage, announced the launch of an online portal to gather Canadians’ view on the role that government should play in supporting Canadian cultural development.
The Minister of Canadian Heritage, with the help of an Expert Advisory Group, will lead public, stakeholder and online consultations beginning summer 2016 on strengthening Canadian content creation, discovery and export in a digital world.
The consultations will encompass information and entertainment content as presented in television, radio, film, digital media and platforms, video games, music, books, newspapers and magazines. More background info is available here.
Canadians and stakeholders are invited to help to establish the scope of these consultations by answering the survey. Your answers will be used to better define the themes and questions that will be used to guide the consultations.
The questionnaire will be available until May 20, 2016.
