There are two aspects. First, we need to support those institutions that already provide programs for minority communities. Some people told me, for example, that the anglophone universities in western Canada were providing courses or programs to francophones. There has to be some clarity here.
Some francophone institutions are concerned. If other anglophone institutions are offering programs, this could undermine the ability of francophone institutions to survive, as well as their vitality, because they would be losing some of their clientele. If the government decides to implement that recommendation, it will have to determine in which programs it will invest. Will it invest in a francophone program at the University of New Brunswick if the University of Moncton is only 180 kilometres away? Is it the same to invest in a program at the University of British Columbia or Simon Fraser University, where there are no francophone institutions close by? Those issues have to be resolved during the implementation of this recommendation.
