Thank you, Mr. Chair.
In response to what Mr. d'Entremont said, “not knowing maybe where government is going”, the way I read this, and with all due respect to Mr. Thériault and Mr. d'Entremont's comments, it was the purview of the chair to determine how to move forward with votes.
I'm content to let you make that decision, but as far as knowing which way the government goes, I don't see this as a huge problem. I want to make sure that we fully recognize the importance of bilingualism. If there's any way to do that to the fairness of the entire committee, we have to make sure that everything is done just perfectly to recognize the importance of bilingualism by this committee.
I will listen to the debate on this issue, but I don't know whether I agree with Mr. d'Entremont that someone should be able to see the direction of the government during the voting process. I will leave that to the rest of the debate.
