In the words of the editor, distinguished scholar Malcolm Ross, it "should be read as an Open Letter--to the artistic community, of course, but also to the wider public, the audiences, to those allies whose support is essential in ensuring the future of the arts in Canada, perhaps in ensuring the future of Canada."
