"The Status of the Artist Act, passed in June of 2002, served as a foundation document for MACSA’s work. Our task was to advise the Minister on practical measures that would have a real impact on the lives of artists in Saskatchewan. The committee was sked to provide the Minister with strategies that could be realistically achieved in the short term and to consider key long term strategies that would foster the environment envisioned by the Status of the Artist Act.

"The conditions are ripe in Saskatchewan for Status of the Artist legislation: there is a core group
of professional artists which has been committed to the cause for at least a decade, while the culture minister and her staff understand that equity legislation for professional artists will go a long way towards improving working conditions for this grou p. Only one other Canadian province, Quebec, has such legislation and, therefore, developing a provincial model is a daunting task, but one well worth undertaking."

-- Megan Williams, national director of the Canadian Conference of the Arts"
