  • Interview with New Democratic Party Candidate for Saskatoon Riversdale, Danielle Chartier
    Interview with New Democratic Party candidate for Saskatoon Riversdale, Danielle Chartier Q: Does your party have an arts and creative industries policy and a vision for the sustainability of the arts in Saskatchewan? If so, please summarize. Danielle Chartier: You bet. The NDP absolutely supports the arts and culture sectors. The bottom line is that arts and culture are all about creating a progressive, vibrant society. Do you want to live in a world where you’ve got colour, where you’ve got people who challenge and inspire, or… what kind of world do you want to live in? So the NDP absolutely supports the arts and culture sectors. As well as creating a much nicer place to live, there’s so much economic activity that spins off. So whether it’s someone who is a member of the Saskatchewan Crafts Council or someone in the film industry the bottom line is too that arts and culture have a huge economic impact in our province so the arts are a key to a thriving and vibrant community and economy. Q: What immediate initiatives is your party proposing to ensure and improve the circumstances of individual artists and arts organizations in Saskatchewan? DC: The arts and culture sector is incredibly unique. So I think the bottom line, consultation, and good and real and meaningful consultation is absolutely imperative. The Sask Party Government implemented the first arts policy, well they say it’s the first arts policy, but they implemented an arts policy but the biggest complaint that I’ve had from artists, or that I’ve heard from people in the community is that a policy is wonderful but you need the legs to that policy, the resources, you need the financial resources and the support to bring life to that policy so that consultation that I talked about would involve connecting with artists and arts organizations to make sure that we are putting legs to that cultural policy instead of one-off ad hoc programs that happen.
