Actually, I don't know how you got that impression, and I'm sorry if I gave you that impression. To me, the use of both official languages is very important. The 2005 survey of the public service indicated the will or the ability of the public service, in a very high percentage, to speak the language of choice in the workplace, in speaking with their supervisors and indeed in providing written materials. In my opinion, what that does is ensure that they are encouraged to use their mother tongue, if they so choose.
