Mr. Chairman, even if this is a political debate, I find this totally unacceptable. There are no anti-francophones here. So I would ask the witness to withdraw his comments. He is appearing before us because he is part of a public institution and he is accountable to taxpayers. Mr. Stursberg, I do not accept your remark that you and your organization are being treated as anti-francophone. We want the truth. The arrogance that you are displaying here today is clear evidence that we were right to call you before the committee.
On April 15th, 2008. See this statement in context.
