Thank you, Minister Miltenberger. Does committee agree?

I’m actually going off an old book so they must have updated it since the estimates were given. With respect to that money, I know that speaking to the film industry directly, being a participant in a number of their Q&As and open houses and speaking to a lot of the film directors themselves, I got the impression that although they’re appreciative of a potential rebate, that was not exactly what they felt would have the most and deepest impact on their bottom line. They were very clear and very adamant that they need what they refer to as cultural film advisors or cultural film experts. I know...

Thank you, Madam Chair. The question was who administers the mining tax credit? Thank you.

We’re in agreement mode here today, that’s great. Sergeant-at-Arms, please escort the witnesses out of the Chamber. Thank you.

As per committee wishes, we will turn our attention now to the Minister of Finance for his opening comments. Minister of Finance.

It’s a pretty impressive number there. I appreciate it. My second part of that question is more of a distribution question between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal. Trapping in itself traditionally is considered an Aboriginal program, but we know quite well that there are non-Aboriginals who partake. I just want to get an idea of what is the uptake that we’re seeing in the school systems in retrospect.

I’m going to change gears here under grants and contributions. Under grants and contributions, I know there is a mining tax credit that is administered. Who administers that tax credit? Thank you.

Thank you, committee. I’d like to thank our witnesses here, Ms. Magrum, Mr. Vician and Mr. Ramsay. Mr. Ramsay.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. For that, we’ll go to Ms. Schofield.

Thank you, Mr. Hawkins. Minister Ramsay.

I appreciate the barriers in trying to find the right proponent to try to take this on. We know it will be a pretty daunting task.

Has the department established any safety protocols so that when a proponent is identified that the government is the one who has established what those barriers of safety are? Did the government prepare the safety protocols? Thank you.
