Good day, gentlemen.
Earlier you heard our minister talk about the money granted to the Department of Immigration. In Quebec, immigration is an area that falls under joint jurisdiction. Several Quebec organizations, whose role is to help immigrants learn another language in addition to their mother tongue, complained. They said that the sums transferred by the federal government that were supposed to be used to teach immigrants English or French—French, in this case—had been paid out, but that it hadn't worked because the money had been put into the partner's consolidated funds, meaning the provincial partner.
You meet with the provinces and territories. I would like to know whether you have kept track of the funds granted by the federal government, by the taxpayers, to see whether the services enabling immigrants and newcomers to learn one of the official languages have in fact been provided. I don't know which of you will be able to answer me.
