Thank you very much and thanks to our witnesses.
I'd like to begin by asking Mr. Fraser a question.
Your predecessor, Commissioner Adam, mentioned in 2003 that the Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages had received very few complaints about the exercise of language rights before the courts. If my memory serves me, she had received approximately 24 complaints in 10 years. She explained that situation as being the result of a number of factors, including perhaps a lack of awareness on the part of Canadian litigants of their language rights.
I would like to know whether you can bring us up to date on the number of complaints received in recent years. Has the number increased or decreased, or has it remained virtually the same?
