Thank you for the question. I must say that the first part of our Recruits Training Program is distance training. The training takes 40 hours over a period of four weeks. A part of this training is aimed at instructing the recruits about the Official Languages Act and about questions such as the primary examination and service to clients. This is not a 40-hour language course; a small part of this period of time deals with the Official Languages Act.
