The Government of Canada is updating its cultural policy, encouraging Canadians to join the conversation and have their say on how to strengthen the creation, discovery and export of Canadian content in a digital world.

Changes in the production and distribution of local content will directly affect Quebec’s English-language artists. ELAN wants to make sure your voice is heard.

At this meeting, we’ll brief you on the issues at stake and invite you to share your thoughts. ELAN will incorporate insights and feedback from the discussion into our brief to be submitted to Canadian Heritage.

Even if you can’t attend, we encourage you to share your thoughts online, use the hashtag #DigiCanCon on social media, and send us your feedback: admin@quebec-elan.org. Check out what Canadians are saying so far.
