Culture in Danger (Culture en Péril, with subtitles)

***IMPORTANT NOTE: To see subtitles, you need to turn the captions “on“ by clicking on the arrow button at the bottom right of the screen, then hover over the CC symbol and turn the captions “on“. Thanks.*** This video was created by a few Québec artists to denounce the cuts in cultural funding by the Conservative governement, led by Stephen Harper. This version includes english subtitles. When Beau Dommage’s Michel Rivard visits a newly formed governmental committee overseeing cultural financing, language gaps and cultural misunderstandings abounds, mostly when Rivard plays his classical song, “La Complainte du Phoque en Alaska“ (The Complaint of the Seal in Alaska)... ***I received a message from the original creators, so I assume it’s accepted that my subtitled version doesn’t interfere with their intellectual property.***
