I'm reacting to my colleague who was saying it's a question of resources. I don't agree. I think it's a question of choice. Are you committed to this? We have a responsibility. I will wear my hat as the CEO of a college, and I think we have a responsibility. We, after all, with our board, decide on what the priorities will be in terms of the use of the funds that are allotted to us. To me, if more people had this commitment to what is a major--my words are not okay, but Canada is a bilingual country. There are two founding languages in Canada, so we should have that obligation if we are heads of teaching institutions. We should feel it is our responsibility to make the appropriate choices.
