Ergo, because of the money problem, it is probable that our orchestras will soon go down in quality.

Mostly this problem is contained in the fact that the US makes it so difficult for Canadians to get green cards (you heard it here), but if an American orchestra really wants a player, they have their ways.

For many years, the government of Canada has massively supported orchestras and the arts in general.

Our dad was a great guy and we will never forget him.

There are no benefactors in Canada because there is no incentive.

Music is art, art is life, and we are who we are, and all of these aforementioned women, unless they should choose not to, will be performing well into the next many decades because they are great artists.
