Ottawa,
April 26, 2005
Susan
Wallace
Executive Director
Canadian Actors' Equity Association
44 Victoria Street, 12th Floor
Toronto, ON M5C 3C4
The
Canadian Conference of the Arts strongly supports artists'
rights re:
negotiations with Blue Man Group
Dear Susan:
On behalf
the Canadian Conference of the Arts (CCA), I wish to express
our support to all associations and unions who represent professional
performers, artists, musicians, directors, technicians in
Toronto. As of today, the producers of the Blue Man Group
have refused to bargain contracts with Toronto's major theatrical
associations and unions: Canadian Actors' Equity Association
(CAEA), the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees
(IATSE) and the Toronto Musicians' Association (TMA).
The Blue
Man Group should respect Canada's rules: every major producer
in Toronto adheres to agreements with Equity, IATSE and the
TMA. This reflects the Canadian tradition, which has always
ensured that our community's artists and technicians are dealt
with fairly, equitably and respectfully.
The CCA
represents the sound of 250 000 artists speaking. The core
of our action is dedicated to improving the working conditions
and the quality of life for artists, the arts and the cultural
industries in Canada.
Yours
sincerely,
Jean
Malavoy
National Director
