Thank you.

My last question will be for Ms. St-Onge.

Ms. St-Onge, you mentioned that you would like to see funding for French-language content secured. Section 5(d) of the policy direction requires that “an appropriate portion be directed to the creation of French-language programming”.

Is that provision a step in the right direction?
