I’m breaking my long silence with a video – a protest against the cuts to cultural funding as well as the new ‘standards’ the Conservatives are imposing on artists through such regulations as the ridiculous Bill C-10.
Starring Michel Rivard, Benoit Brière et Stéphane Rousseau. Michel Rivard visits a panel overseeing government cultural funding, and sings them ‘La complainte du Phoque en Alaksa’ (the lament of the Seal in Alaska).
It’s just too bad the whole panel isn’t wearing sweaters and holding immigrant babies in their arms.
