The federal government is certainly playing a more and more important role. With public service renewal, in the future, 20,000 positions will be available in the public service every year. I know that this message was strongly communicated by the Clerk of the Privy Council, Kevin Lynch, who met with the university presidents and gave them a very clear message.
However, I also absolutely agree with you that the federal government should send more messages to university presidents, to universities, to students, to parents, to the effect that linguistic duality is an important value in Canada and that in uncertain times for employment, bilingualism is essential to advance in Canada's public service. The Government of Canada is increasingly becoming an employer of choice at a time when the sector of high finance no longer has the status it held three years ago as an employer.
