As I mentioned to your colleague, Mr. Leitão, there are the supports that we've talked about at some length now for CBC/Radio-Canada, for Telefilm and for the Office national du film. Those are really important budgetary measures in the context of a budget that had a rationalization aspect to it as we looked at making some difficult choices as to what we were prioritizing. I think prioritizing institutions that continue to make us proud of our Canadian national identity, including the promotion of our official languages across Canada, is key. It includes penetrating into small communities like the one you mentioned.
I know you have made significant efforts to learn French yourself. I think that is laudable. There need to be more opportunities in that respect. We have been signing bilateral agreements with provinces—over $1 billion in education agreements for second-language learning. More often than not, that is French. There is also the action plan that saw significant investments into the French language across Canada, including in Quebec.
