The Canadian Arts Coalition is made up of member organizations and individuals representing thousands of cultural workers and artists from across Canada. The CAC asks all parties to commit to allocating a minimum of one percent of the annual federal budget to arts and culture, which is an increase of only 0.06% from current levels. This would include increases to the Canada Council for the Arts and the Department of Canadian Heritage. While the specifics of the funding ask are all available on the Coalition website, the ArtsVote campaign is grassroots: everyone is to be able to participate and make their voice heard no matter whether they work in the arts sector directly or are a supporter.
