I'm hearing that accommodating indigenous languages and the French language is an important thing to my colleagues. I've listened to that.
I don't believe that accommodating and supporting the French language in any way takes away from what we're trying to do here. I would hate for us not to be able to move forward in the future on unanimous consent because we didn't respect the French language.
I'm willing to put a subamendment forward. Actually, I don't know if we can amend the current thing. The Bloc had to amend their current amendment. However, I'm willing to put a subamendment forward that speaks to exactly what Mr. Lemire would like to see as a new amendment, if that helps the committee get to a vote on this, which we would support—the official languages.
