Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. Vaillancourt, Mr. Peralta and you have spoken about the language industry and its development. From the documents I read before the meeting, the language industry is growing at a rate of approximately 18%. So that means that, at that rate, if my calculations are correct, that industry will double in size within approximately six or seven years. The program is for a term of five years; at least that was the case of the one that has just terminated. However, I would like you to talk to me about your organizations' needs for assistance from the federal government, which is responsible for the program. Mr. Vaillancourt and Mr. Peralta, I'd like to hear your comments on that subject.
