We dream of a day when The National, on CBC, will indeed be able to speak to an issue that would bring together the Canadian francophonie.

Thank you very much for that testimony here this morning, and I thank everyone for their questions.
I have one little statement I'd like to make. Again, when we were in Yellowknife the challenge that CBC/Radio-Canada has was very evident, because CBC North not only has to work in English and French, but they also have 11 Innu and aboriginal tongues to deal with. We are quite a diverse country, and CBC North works over half the area of Canada, and it's very sparsely populated. So it is a challenge, and I know we get it in various other ways. I just wanted to make that statement .
Thank you very much for your presentation this morning, and I thank everyone around this table for their great questions.
The meeting is adjourned.
