Thank you for the question.
We both care about this issue, as do Canadians and many people within our communities who have been calling for the modernization of the Official Languages Act for many years now. They would like to see clauses that guarantee that all dollars are invested and that all policies are applied. Moreover, they want policies to be reviewed in order to ensure that they are adapted to the various contexts that exist in our country.
Treasury Board powers will be increased, which will allow us to oversee compliance and better evaluate the measures and programs being proposed.
I hope that all parties will support Bill C‑13 which seeks to modernize the 50‑year-old Official Languages Act, so that we can strengthen it.
