In fact, I think that linguistic diversity is thriving in the Canadian Forces. Right now, of course, we're spending money to train our world. We've also established certain levels of bilingualism required to reach the next rank. This is done very formally. We provide second-language training, but we also assess, in our annual reports and selection boards, the people who want to take language training for promotion purposes.
You have before you a bilingual senior officer. We've adopted a bilingualism policy that applies to senior officers and senior non-commissioned officers in the Canadian Forces. Most officers in key or senior positions are fully bilingual.
We're reviewing the policy to seek, at the beginning of their careers, the people who will be given the opportunity to work in a meritocracy with regard to learning a second language, so that they can progress and reach higher ranks.
