It isn't premature. What happens is that judicial positions should be granted to individuals who know both languages, and I see that Stephen Harper's Conservative government doesn't have the will to say it will respect the country's two languages, English and French, and to make an appointment to the Supreme Court that respects the two official languages. That's where we're headed. At least that's my opinion. Perhaps I'm wrong. I think that, if we talk to people and conduct a survey to determine how they would like to be served, they'll definitely say, with regard to justice, that they would like to be served in the language of their choice.
