Twenty-five years after the launch of Quebec\u2019s first Cultural Policy, which led to the creation of CALQ and SODEC, and 15 months after consultations began, Luc Fortin, Minister of Culture and Communications, has released a draft of the new Cultural Policy.<\/p>\n

ELAN consulted its members last summer and presented a brief <\/a>to the Minister last fall, expressing our concerns that the working documents indicated an alarming discomfort with English-language art and artists. We understand the importance of celebrating French-language culture, but we also know that when Arcade Fire won a Grammy Award in 2011 the National Assembly voted a unanimous resolution recognizing that English-speaking artists can also be worthy ambassadors for Quebec.<\/p>\n

The new policy fills many gaps from 1992, particularly the digital shift, and recognition of the importance of Indigenous artists. It is not perfect, but the Minister and his team have made a serious effort to be modern and inclusive.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Culture and Communications is currently inviting feedback on the draft Cultural Policy<\/a>\u00a0(FR). This is the last chance for you to have your say! <\/strong>Take a few minutes to review the document, then send your comments to the Ministry, or to ELAN (admin@quebec-elan.org<\/a>) and we will include them with ours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
