Last week, Paul Wells noted

Last week, Paul Wells noted

the fact that CanWest Global is trying to foist a new contract on freelance writers. The new contract gives CanWest Global all rights to anything written in perpetuity. Wells sums up the problem with this very well, and as someone who made a portion of his living through his words, I really hope writers can resist this.

Chris has posted

some good thoughts about his experience at an open meeting with members of the Canada Council on the new funding scheme for visual arts. He raises some valuable points that I wish would be addressed by someone. It’s particularly disturbing to understand that though they are making a radical move to funding exhibitions, not artists, that they didn’t seem to have an overarching principle guiding that change.
