Above all, I want to pass on the regrets of Mr. McGarr, our president, who had to meet with the Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities this morning. That's why he is not here with you this morning. Mr. McGarr is completely bilingual. With regard to governance, I must tell you that I couldn't be working for a better president who is setting the tone at the top. There's absolutely no problem in that regard.
You referred to the performance level. You raised a very good point, a very good idea, which is the ability to identify people in order to know whether they are really bilingual. In the next call for tenders, as I mentioned, we will have requirements so that our contractors, service contractors, can test the language ability of the people they're going to hire. We have some work to do in that area, I admit.
With respect to the statistics, I don't have a thorough knowledge of the sampling method of the Commissioner of Official Languages. I would be more than happy to share mine with you. As I said, my sampling comprises 20,000 samples. I don't know what the sampling of the Commissioner of Official Languages is. On this basis of 20,000 samples, I can say that it is a fairly accurate representation. I have a compliance rate of 94%, and I'm very proud of that. I spoke to the Commissioner of Official Languages on two occasions so that we could further discuss our sampling method, the tests and the oversight of our operations, and so that we could share this kind of information, which would be beneficial to both parties.
