First, Mr. Côté, I thank you for being here. The chief priority of your mission probably does not consist in detecting the problems encountered by certain francophone soldiers in training centres like the one at Borden. I thank you for being our eyes and our ears, and for informing us today about this important matter.
Certain measures were taken, such as reopening the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean. In any case, when the government closes down a francophone college, it has its responsibilities. The military people are not the only ones who are responsible for this. I think that the reopening of the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean was a step in the right direction. Nevertheless, we realized that there is more work to be done and that it will take time.
As I want to hear you out, I would like you to tell me your opinion about the other priority measures that we should take to improve the training and the other services provided in French for the francophone students at Borden college.
