Federal government authorities use the name "Gaspésie—Îles-de-la-Madeleine". I am thinking, in particular, of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Service Canada. The Association touristique régionale des Îles-de-la-Madeleine—there are many ATRs in Quebec—has been asking for years that people focus on the name "Îles-de-la-Madeleine", not on the familiar version, "Les Îles".
The municipality uses "Îles-de-la-Madeleine", as do the federal and provincial governments. This is increasingly how the Magdalen Islands are recognized.
So we would ask the commission, which we will be contacting in the next few days, not to block this emerging consensus. We ask the committee to support that consensus and allow it to expand even further.
