I have to confess, when I went across the country and I visited with different and varying arts and culture groups, the needs of our artists internationally are quite wide and varied. For some it's just straight support in order to get them into other markets, for sending them and their instruments overseas, their plane tickets, shipping, and so on. For other industries, for example, on museums, they need support from the government with regard to insurance. So if they're going to have exchanges of collections, they need the government to support them with the insurance costs. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1290148\" data-originallang=\"en\">We have a small domestic market--linguistically fractured.

Les mus\u00e9es, pour leur part, ont besoin d'une aide financi\u00e8re du gouvernement au titre des assurances. Pour pouvoir \u00e9changer leurs collections, les mus\u00e9es ont besoin que le gouvernement les aide \u00e0 financer le co\u00fbt des assurances. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1290148\" data-originallang=\"en\">Notre march\u00e9 int\u00e9rieur est petit, d'autant plus que le Canada compte deux groupes linguistiques.
