Thank you.
My question is for Mr. Vaillancourt.
We have had as a witness the Provincial Employment Roundtable, or PERT, whose studies revealed that anglophones in Quebec are more exposed to unemployment and that there are more of them below the poverty line. Anglophones are poorer overall than francophones.
To arrive at these conclusions, they used the variable “person's first official language spoken”, which includes around a third of immigrants to Quebec; first nations people were also predominantly included as anglophones. They also used the median, which, let's say, removes some of the economic disparities and therefore favours anglophones more in this type of comparison.
What do you think of the situation and of this kind of methodology?
