It is on a total scale of 12. It is a low to middle level of mastery of our official languages. One would be expected to be able to formulate simple sentences, fill in a form, perform the basic tasks of life. Obviously most new Canadians go well beyond that level very quickly. We're also very conscious of the fact that with regard to certification by third parties this can be open to abuse as well.
A British colleague told me just yesterday about a very large case in their country of a third party language validating authority that somehow was giving out this certification to people who hadn't achieved the level. Even this criterion for citizenship requires constant review and supervision to make sure it's being applied uniformly and met by all the new Canadians who want to become citizens. The vast majority obviously achieve it, and achieve it honestly. We want that to become the firm and expected practice.
