Our case may be an extreme one. I must point this out so that it's clear: we're putting our cards on the table here, this is no place to hide things. Right now, one of your institutions, namely the Government of the Northwest Territories, which is included in the structure of the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, has a Supreme Court ruling against the Northwest Territories for systemic discrimination against its francophone citizens. It's not pretty, but what led to this? You have to look at how the House thinks about these things. Quite obviously, there's some indifference, and we know through testimony that a laisser-faire policy led to this situation. Your group must therefore make an effort to become seriously aware of this in order to correct things. As Denis mentioned earlier, there has to be a valid analysis to really find out what the minimal needs are.
