Federally-subsidized art programs and groups are required to further “social activism” in order to address racism and inclusion issues, says the Canada Council for the Arts.
“The Council should support the arts sector in promoting social activism and social justice and it should encourage and support actions that address racism and promote inclusion and diversity,” said the council’s management report “Reimagine The Arts: 2021-26 Strategic Plan,” according to documents obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter.
