Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Thank you, Minister, for appearing before us once again.
I appreciate that the Department of Justice has to bear its share with regard to certain cost-cutting approaches, but I want to ask you about three approaches on which I'm querying the judgment.
The first is a decrease of $5 million from the sunsetting of the funding for the initiative in support of access to justice in both official languages. In my view, this is an important initiative on both a symbolic level and a substantive level. Coming at a time that in Quebec we see Bill 14 itself prejudicing minority rights, it's almost inappropriate with respect to the federal government being involved in this kind of cost-cutting measure.
