Entry: Arts funding is for sissies, dagnabbit! Sunday, May 01, 2005



It would make you laugh, if it didn't make you wanna cry.

"The horse racing industry received $45 million from the [Alberta] provincial government in the April budget, while the [Alberta Foundation for the Arts] received $32.5 million."

—Amy Steele, FFWD Weekly

(link to full article to come; the online edition of FFWD is a week behind the print edition.)

(edit: bizarrely, the April 27 edition of FFWD never got archived online. If I was of a more paranoid bent I'd see a conspiracy.)
