In early August, Orchestras Canada submitted a brief to the federal Standing Committee on Finance as part of the committee\u2019s annual pre-budget consultation process.<\/p>\n

Informed by a member consultation, our discussions with advocacy partners, our sense of the current political climate, and discussions with OC\u2019s Advocacy Committee, OC made four recommendations to the Committee this year:<\/p>\n

Recommendation 1<\/strong>: Ensure that the five-year $180 million investment for the Canada Council for the Arts announced in Budget 2016 is sustained and fully realized in Canada\u2019s long-term fiscal plan.<\/em><\/p>\n

Recommendation 2<\/strong>: Acknowledge the fundamental importance of digital capacity in the arts by ensuring there are comprehensive, integrated, accessible, and forward-thinking federal programs and policies in place.<\/em><\/p>\n

Recommendation 3<\/strong>: Enhance the Endowment Incentives program (part of the Department of Canadian Heritage\u2019s Canada Cultural Investment Fund), to help arts and culture organizations develop stable, long-term revenues through the growth of endowment funds.<\/em><\/p>\n

Recommendation 4<\/strong>: Help arts and culture organizations provide full-time, career-oriented work opportunities to recent graduates of post-secondary institutions by expanding the Young Canada Works program.<\/em><\/p>\n

You can find the entire brief\u00a0HERE<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

We urge Canadian orchestras to read the brief, and share it with their Members of Parliament, as an attachment to an email, as a hard copy inclusion in a letter on orchestra letterhead, or through discussion in a face-to-face meeting in your riding. Whether your MP is an opposition backbencher, or a member of the federal Cabinet, we\u2019d like them to be aware that federal policy and investment decisions can have significant local ramifications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
