Comment on Rising licence fees threaten TransLink buskers by cathy davis

Many street musicians,including myself play our own original music, or material that is in the public domain. This Socan initiative is draconian! I would like to see their books so that we can find out just how much of the take goes to songwriters, and how much goes to administration and salaries. I am proud to be a Translink Busker. I love the program enough to travel from Nanaimo on a regular basis to perform. We are all auditioned, have criminal record checks and participate in a yearly workshop. The next thing you know Socan will be making the City of Nanaimo and others pay for the busking spots on the street. busking is a hard enough job to make a living at without Socan taxing poor atreet musicians!
