This goes back to what Mr. Thériault said about linguistic regimes. It's important that the dominant group learn the language of the minority. In order to do that, we need immersion programs and training courses for public servants to ensure that they're bilingual. At the same time, we need to have a linguistic regime that recognizes the uniqueness or the cultural dimension of those linguistic communities. What factors form the basis for a francophone community's identity and culture? The institutions need to be managed by the community in order to ensure that they meet that community's needs.
The problem is when we look at systems that are competing with each other. We must recognize that the needs are different and find ways to cooperate on shared aspects. For example, in Saskatchewan, the Francofièvre event is a day during which immersion students and Franco-Saskatchewanian students are invited to celebrate the French language with music, workshops, etc.
There are ways to promote the French language and see it as an important aspect of Canadian society, but we also need to have comfort zones, meaning institutions that belong to the communities, so that young people can develop their identity and culture there.
