I would like to make a few positive comments, because Mr. D'Amours has given us only part of the story.
The government has not cut funding to the Action Plan for Official Languages, unlike my Liberal friends who made cuts to official languages programs during the 1990s.
We have announced some fine initiatives in education; we have signed a billion dollar agreement with the provinces, we have allocated $64 million to services, which represents an increase of approximately 25%. We have also announced a contribution of $120 million for minority francophone communities; this is an 11% increase. Lastly, we presented the strategic plan to promote immigration within minority francophone communities.
You have our support. We are signing agreements, we are providing money and, I repeat, there have been no budget cuts at all to official languages programs.
I would nevertheless like to ask Ms. Carrier-Fraser a question. Not the same question.
I attended the annual meeting of the Association canadienne-française de l'Ontario, the ACFO. What are the differences between the mandates of the ACFO and the AFO?
