Thank you. That was great.
As other levels of government, you must have some observations on the status of the federal government at the present time in that you need some of their data as well in order to do your work. We were concerned when Government Information Quarterly had us as the leader in access to information laws and recently put us dead last in parliamentary democracies.
If you were writing our report, what would be the recommendations that you would want in this report in terms of how the federal government can catch up? It seems from what I think we've heard that a lot of it is attitudinal. If the leader says, “Thou shalt be open”, as Obama did, then things tend to happen. Obviously, there is a legislative framework as well that actually makes it not optional.
I would like you to tell us what you think needs to happen and where the problems are from your point of view in terms of federal access in terms of open government and open data.
Also, Mr. Michaud, obviously you have the same challenge we do in terms of the two official languages. How have you sorted that out? I think we heard from Toronto that they have lots of things in 70 languages, but the federal official language legislation means that we need to be hard markers on this.
