I would like to come back to another aspect of how services are provided to our soldiers in French.
Last week, Colonel Gerry Blais, Director of Casualty Support Management of the Canadian Forces, appeared before our committee. I asked him if it was possible for all military bases to provide services in French, considering the needs, whether this involves volunteers or staff.
Is that the case or not? Is it possible for all military personnel to receive mental health services in French on every base in the country?
Although this is not linked to mental health, I have seen cases where people have been sent to certain bases to take a course that was supposed to be bilingual, but since most of the people on site were anglophone, the course was given entirely in English. Even when a service was supposed to be offered in French, that is not what actually happened. This really worries me.
I wonder if you could talk about the situation on all bases across the country.
