Official Languages committee  Yes, I could not speak for the QCGN, since it is more on the anglophone side—

Official Languages committee  No, it was the FCFA. We belong to the Leaders' Forum. The FCFA was indeed consulted. I even met with the people from its executive office concerning this process. By the end of April, we will also be specifically consulting the FCFA and its members. A situation arose in which the FCFA was not involved, and that may be what caused a kind of uncomfortable situation with that organization.

Official Languages committee  Of course, Mr. Godin. As I said earlier, 1,200 people responded to the cross-Canada consultation that we held. The answers helped us target key sectors where efforts must be focused in particular. However, there is not necessarily any research specific to official language minority communities in those sectors.

Official Languages committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. I want to thank committee members for inviting us here this morning. My name is Jean Léger and I am executive director of the Réseau de développement économique et d'employabilité Canada, better known as RDÉE Canada. The chairman of our board, Gilles Lanteigne, who is from New Brunswick, was to be with us this morning, but the weather was not very good in the Maritimes yesterday and he is unable to be here this morning.
