You're right, Mr. Godin: the community needs support. The University of Moncton has a research centre on linguistic minorities. Mr. Rodrigue Landry, a researcher and professor, said it bluntly: if there's no balance struck between community infrastructure and health care centres, schools, and so forth, the community will not be able to survive nor flourish. Therefore there has to be investment in establishing community infrastructure. You can't simply open up a school and expect that a youngster will speak French as soon as he walks through the door of that school. When that door is closed, what language will he speak?
