I will be very brief.
In principle, every government program, before having any cuts made or before being changed, should be submitted to the attention of the official language communities if indeed the government is going to maintain its policy on the Action Plan for Official Languages, which includes an accountability framework.
It is more or less what we mentioned in our most recent discussions. We need only remember the latest cuts, whether for the Court Challenges Program or others.
As it happens, we were very surprised. The official languages viewpoint is extremely important. You have been mentioning rural communities, francophone communities outside Quebec. All of these communities are indeed extremely vulnerable and sensitive.
That is why the action plan had incorporated an extremely important component: the accountability framework. We are in fact always surprised when we find that changes are made without any consideration of official languages, whether for publications assistance or programs that affect the communities in one way or another.
